For the past twenty years, I’ve been an enthused runner, exploring the lanes and trails of Central Park, which has become my personal favorite spot and an extension of my home in this city. I can’t imagine residing here without it. Through my guided running tours, I promise to reveal mesmerizing, tranquil and hidden areas of the park usually missed by city tourists. Discover some unique historical facts, greet Harlem at its origin point, immerse yourself in lush nature and marvel at cascading waterfalls. Join me in uncovering the north area of the park!
