The Great Lawn

Central Park · Open lawn · Free

After a road run I bring my mobility work here. Soft grass, space to spread out, and the skyline over the treeline. It's the best free open-air floor in Manhattan for stretching or barefoot strides.

The vast open field in the middle of Central Park — where to stretch, do mobility, or run barefoot strides.
