Running around the Imperial Palace

I had some time in the morning before meeting my friends so I did a couple of laps around the Imperial Palace.  Apparently it is a 5k to go around one time and it is the most popular running rout in Japan.
Anytime you go there are supposed to be joggers you can follow around.  It was true. I saw plenty of people on the sidewalk going at all paces.  It was a nice jog.  Pretty flat without stoplights or fear of getting hit by cars.
The weather was also amazing.  Springtime in Japan is pretty great.
I did get hot and bought a jumbo chocolate waffle ice cream and cc lemon from seven eleven.

It was beautiful.

I had my small suitcase with me so I popped it into a locker in the train station while on my jog.  I accidentally left my hair tie but luckily I found one on the sidewalk once I started my run.  

Afterwards I did my make up at the Disney store with their princess line and met my friends.  I'm really surprised they had make up samples out like that.
Going on this trip made me realize how much I miss Tokyo, the trains and my friends.
