Delaware Park is the jewel in the crown of Buffalo's park system. The park contains lakes, an art gallery, picnic areas, and trails. It also hosts the second largest free Shakespeare festival (after NYC) each summer. You could easily spend a full day here and still not discover everything on offer.

The Tonawanda Rail Trail is a commuter and exercise trail running from Buffalo to Tonawanda. The trail is primarily paved, but there are some smooth crushed-gravel sections, and there are plenty of spur trails and other paths intersecting the main trail that you can run on. The trail is a really popular spot for runners and bikers, so be aware of other trail users while you run on the path. It's really well-marked, and there are trail maps placed sporadically along the course of the trail.

Ring Road goes the perimeter of this public golf course of 18 holes, and the path is earth, much lower impact than walking the concrete road around the edge.
