If you think that you want to run downtown in Tokyo, I strongly recommend using “Fuku no yu”.
“Fuku no yu” is the so-called Japanese Public Bath, but running is available.
You can leave your package in the locker of “Fuku no yu”, and feel free to enjoy the running downtown (with just the smartphone and the coin) by hand.
Yanaka, Nezu and Sendagi areas are called “Yanesenn”, and you can enjoy many temples built in the Edo period and cheap and delicious bars and restaurants unique to downtown.
After running, after refreshing in the bath, it is good to enjoy the downtown sightseeing slowly this time!
