When winter starts to turn into spring is really nice. Not only in Tokyo. I hope we are there soon!

Quite crowded sometimes. Did you ever run into something interesting, off camera?

I ran into interesting stuff occasionally. To the least there are a lot of interesting things to see.

How far from your hotel to Imperial palace loop? What hotel? Tq for your recommendation

I stayed at the APA Hotel Mita Ekimae. It's about 4km to the Imperial Palace running loop. I know there is APA hotel in Shimbashi/Onarimon which is closer to the Imperial Palace. Both hotels have very good access to train stations, Yamanote Line and Asakusa Line. APA hotels are typical Japanese business hotels. Decent rooms for a fair price if you are going to be outside all day and only sleep. Mind that I was there alone, I didn't bring any family. There are plenty of resturants and convenience stores around both hotel locations.

What cold running gear would you recommend to run in tokyo in March. Im thinking of running at 7-8am.

It could be quite chilly in the mornings in March, down to like 5 degrees Celsius. I guess it warms up quite quickly though until lunch time. I don't like the cold so I would go for some long leg tights or leggings, some kind of light jacket or long sleeve shirt/sweater (with short sleeve base layer underneath) and I would bring gloves (I don't like getting my hands cold). I'd wear a cap but probably not a beanie. A thin west might be useful on colder days. I guess it also depends on your preferences and how far and fast you run. There are plenty of vending machined for drinks almost everywhere on the streets. Bring some 100 yen coins if you need a drink and energy. Some vending machines takes Suica and Pasmo pre-paid cards but not all. Let me know if any other questions. Good luck and enjoy Tokyo running!
