Are the parks actually closed? I only saw them closed for Easter weekend.

Yup! All parks are closed, but you can't even tell if you drove by say MacArthur park right now.

“Parks still remain open for walking or running”

This is what I suspected. I couldn’t imagine parks and rec or LAPD not shooing people away and putting up physical barriers if they were actually closed.

If social distancing guidelines are maintained, that is. Note the next line about recreational group sports which are my biggest issues with the parks right now. It would take 1 cop to tell everyone playing basketball and soccer to go home, although with the trongs of spectators on bleachers maybe a couple cops on horses would be better.
