Running routes in Nagoya: where the heart fits in

Most running routes in Nagoya fall into three families: park loops for easy days, waterfront or riverside stretches for tempo work, and city-street circuits for sightseeing miles. The heart route is the fourth kind — a street circuit planned so the GPS trace draws something worth sharing. Runners use it as a race-week shakeout, a dedication run with a name on the watch, or simply the most memorable run of a city trip. Get the Nagoya heart below for €7.99, have one drawn from your own address for €14 in the custom heart studio, or browse all public heart routes to see how it looks on the map.
