Trail etiquette
I like biking a lot but in my heart I’m a runner so I know the trails around the cities from both sides. I mostly run around the river, Nokomis, and minnehaha creek. I’m just wondering where the heck I’m supposed to run these days.
The “walking paths” are so busy and always have tons of people walking their dog and taking up the entire path with no regard for anyone besides themselves. So I often choose to run on the bike path. I never wear headphones and am very conscious of bikers and get out of the way as soon as I see or hear someone coming.
Am I completely out of line for this? If so where am I supposed to run so that I don’t completely lose my mind from weaving between people not paying attention my entire run?
Edit: wow, this was extremely unhelpful. Answers are about 50:50 😂 I’m just going to keep on being as courteous as I can to others and hope they can do the same for me 😊 love to all MSP bikers, runners, and walkers!
