You can just loop through the path:

\startMPpage[offset=1DK]
path p ;
numeric N ; N := 20 ;

for i = 1 upto N :
  z[i] = 1cm*dir(360*i/N) ;
endfor

path p ;
p := for i = 1 upto N : z[i] -- endfor cycle ;

drawarrow p withpen pencircle scaled 3
            withcolor darkblue ;

for i = 1 upto N :
  drawarrow (point i - 1 of p -- point i of p)
            withpen pencircle scaled 1
            withcolor darkred ;
endfor

for i within p :
  drawarrow (deltapoint - 1 -- pathpoint)
            withpen pencircle scaled .5
            withcolor darkyellow ;
endfor
\stopMPpage

The second method is likely a bit faster if you have a long path.
