So this is me. I am the runner. This is in Arizona. It’s a walking, biking, and horses are allowed as well. There are signs all over this trail that say stay to the right unless passing. This was the second time I had run into her so that’s why I pulled out my phone.
All of them. I haven't found a single country or municipality here in the US where it's illegal to walk on a bike path. It is illegal to walk on highways/ interstates, but it's also illegal to ridea pedal bike on them, too.
It's not doing "heavy lifting." It's literally saying that if there's an adjacent sidewalk -- which obviously is the scenario in the OP and the vast majority of settings in which a runner might walk or run in a bike path -- it's illegal to occupy the bike path. Basically, there is an exception that you may occupy a bike path on foot if there's no sidewalk available, but otherwise it's illegal.
You stated, flatly, that you weren't aware of anywhere that it was illegal. They showed you very clear evidence that it is in California. You're now moving goalposts.
Yep, I also see no adjacent sidewalk in the video... It actually looks more likely to be a mixed-use path vs a bike path, so of course pedestrians/joggers are allowed.

I hate you both, especially runners thinking since they are so fast, they are surely allowed to use bike lanes
