About this event

👟 Onagi Riverway Morning 10k & Breakfast 🌊 Looking for a picturesque morning run to kick off your weekend? Join the Sumida Striders for a scenic out-and-back route crossing Koto City along the historic Onagi Riverway all the way to the Arakawa! We’ll cruise along the quiet pedestrian promenades, catch some great morning views, take a cool-down breather by the water, and head back for a well-earned coffee and breakfast together in Kiyosumi-Shirakawa. The Plan: • 6:30 AM: Meet up near Takahashi Bridge (Map Link (https://maps.app.goo.gl/w8XmncNNagGh8kJo6)), just a short walk from Kiyosumi-Shirakawa Station. Time to gather, stretch, and catch up! • 6:45 AM: Run departs promptly! We’ll head east along the south-side promenade of the Onagi Riverway. • Mid-Run Rest Stop (\~7:20 AM): Reaching the Arakawa Lock, we'll take a 15-minute breather by the riverbank to rest, grab cold drinks or ice cream at a nearby convenience store, and recharge. • Return Leg (\~7:35 AM): We’ll head back toward Kiyosumi-Shirakawa along the north-side promenade of the river, wrapping up right around 8:05 AM. • Post-Run Breakfast: Afterwards, we’ll head straight over to iki Espresso (https://maps.app.goo.gl/354RjNfFAiHh35N96) right as they open at 8:15 AM to grab coffee, breakfast, and hang out! Key Details: • Distance: \~11 km total (out-and-back) • What to bring: • Comfortable running gear • Water/hydration • Money/IC Card for the mid-run konbini stop and breakfast at iki Espresso • Good vibes! About the Pace: We run at a social, conversational pace (typically around 6:00–7:00/km or \~10–11 min/mile) and keep the group together—no one gets left behind! It’s a great, low-stress way to get a summer 10k under your belt before the midday heat hits. Come catch the early morning breeze along the river with us! 🪼✨
