Well said.
As a long time runner, I always acknowledge a courtious driver that gives me room by giving them a thank you wave. Both in Indiana when I'm running on the road, and here on the mmp.

It's not that hard. A little courtesy goes a long way. That includes everyone on the mmp, runners, walkers, bikes and carts.
