I am documenting this run for the people that stay at the Claska Hotel in Meguro. You can get to the Claska Hotel via Tokyu Bus number one leaving from JR Meguro Station and get off at the stop named Shimizu. The hotel is on the other side of Meguro Dori, a little bit ahead but can be clearly seen from the bus stop.
I have mapped a 6K to the Meguro River as well. You can find that map on mapmyrun.com as well.
The photos (click the title to link to the photos) are along the 14K route. I have managed to avoid the major roads to allow the runner to get to some beautiful spaces around Meguro. You can shorten this route by not running the 2K loop inside Komazawa Olympic Park. There is water and toilets near the middle of the run, particularly along the cherry tree pedestrian path. The last section is through a neighborhood and you may end up wanting to purchase a drink from a vending machine, especially now that the days are warmer. Alas, you have about 51 weeks to wait for the cherry blossoms but there is plenty to enjoy coming up, including the wisteria which will be blooming very soon and the hydrangea in May and June. Don't miss them!
