I will be in Tokyo for pretty much all of March this year and I want to do lots of running. I find this is my favourite way to explore around a new city. From my research, I’ve gathered that Japanese and North American culture are super different from each other and I’d love to know more about what it’s like to run in Tokyo. In North America, there’s way more room between you and another person when on a run and perhaps it’s not the case when running through the streets and alleys of Tokyo.
How do I go about getting in memorable kilometres on this trip? Will I need to only run in quiet suburb areas and nearby towns/cities or can I run around the busier areas of the city?
I don’t want to bother anyone as I know Japanese people really like to keep to themselves and I don’t want to disturb their peace. I’d also love if someone could recommend some routes or areas that are primo for running. I’m also in the market for a running buddy!
Thanks in advance <3
