not exactly, but if you stay on the road on the outer ring, there is a designated bike lane and a designated running lane. and on weekends (i believe, i've never biked there on a weekday), it's closed to vehicles so there's a good amount of space to ride on and the runners/walkers tend to stay out of the way.
