Outdoor training in phase 2 of the de-escalation
Outdoor sports undergo a great change as the time bands disappear. In this way, we will be able to train in the streets and parks at any time, except in the times reserved for those over 70 (from 10:00 to 12:00 in the morning and from 19:00 to 20:00 in the afternoon). ).
As we explained a few days ago, the use of masks is not mandatory while we are training, as it is considered incompatible with sports. We will always have to maintain a safety distance of at least two meters with other people, and also hygiene measures.
Activities are allowed without contact and maintaining a safe distance such as running, cycling, golf and sport hunting and fishing.
BOE Update 05/23/2020: according to the ministerial order that comes into force on May 25, walks and sports may be carried out in groups of up to 15 people in phase 2.
Gym training in phase 2 of the de-escalation
Also training in gyms and sports centers: sports activities will be resumed in closed spaces and without an audience, and centers may open 30% of their capacity by appointment, always to practice sports in which there is no contact or in the the risk of contact is low. In sports centers, the social distance of two meters and hygiene measures must be maintained.
In addition, both indoor and outdoor swimming pools for recreational and sports use are opened. In the pools, distance, capacity and hygiene measures will also be followed: you must go by appointment, there can only be one athlete per street and they can only accommodate 30% of their capacity. Cleaning in the case of swimming pools will be carried out at least three times a day and the showers in the changing rooms cannot be used.
Active tourism and nature activities in phase 2 of the de-escalation
If in phase 1 we could already carry out active or nature tourism activities in small groups of 10 people or less, in phase 2 these groups expand to 20 people, and we will have to carry them out with organizing companies dedicated to this end (we cannot do them on our own).
The beaches will also be opened to be able to stay on them (not just for walks) and sports activities that do not involve contact will continue to be allowed.
