The second issue. Once on your selected path, Never walk down the middle! Walk on the far RIGHT of that chosen path. If a biker, jogger, scooter, or whatever comes up from behind, You are allowing enough room for them to pass you on the left without hitting you or falling off their bike.
Sorry, but you're contradicting yourself...

I see you just joined a month ago. Have you actually moved into your home yet?

If so, and you've walked on the MMPs, you physically cannot do what you're suggesting...

If you're walking down a street/path, facing traffic, how is it possible to stay to the right?
