I am all about multi-tasking and amazed at the new strategies folks create to combine fitness with other activities. When I first learned about running tours in Rome, I was so excited by the concept that I almost bought a ticket to Italy. Thanks to City Running Tours I can stay stateside and jog to see the sights of New York, Chicago and D.C., with Austin and Denver coming soon.
This concept is great for the business traveler bored with the hotel treadmill, the vacationer in training for an upcoming race, or the recreational runner who wants to explore the sights and exercise at the same time. City Running Tours offers set tours, as well as customized runs to accommodate any athletic ability, style, training regimen or specific landmarks. Pricing is $50 per person for the first 6 miles and $4 per person for each mile after that. In the Big Apple prices are a little higher - $60 per person for the first six miles and $6 per person for each additional mile.
Buy your tickets online and hit the streets, see new sights, and get your heart rate up all at the same time.

This sounds like so much fun!!
I workout in Austin, Texas on Town Lake, and we'll go on runs through the city sometimes - we did a run THROUGH the capitol building one day!
1Kinda expensive but a fun idea. ^_^ I love running, this idea makes me want to run through my own city.
2I'd do it in a heart beat - too bad u cant stop and shop while you're at it.
3For free you could try mapmyrun.com - people post running routes for different cities in a google maps layout.
