There are several fantastic running routes in Yokohama. The ones we are going to introduce in this article each have a “running station” equipped with lockers and showers at their start point. Both of the routes are situated in a nice location and convenient to use on the way back from work and on holidays. We recommend that you use these routes to enjoy running training.
