Fukuoka

Running in Fukuoka was hard for me. Our hotel was near the Naka River and I assumed there would be pedestrian paths along it. Well, there were pedestrian paths, but they ended at every bridge intersection so I still had to wait at crosswalks every 200-300 meters. I ran to Hakata Pier, which was lovely early in the morning (see photo below).
