We connect with like minded people from all over the world because of our passion for running as well as the city we call home. Through this reward, we are able to showcase the history and culture of a city while promoting a healthy lifestyle, instilling self confidence and making people feel like themselves. Ideal for the business traveler who is tired of the hotel treadmill, the marathon runner who is training for a race, or the recreational runner who wants to explore new and interesting routes, City Running Tours offers both guided group and personalized runs to accommodate any athletic ability, style, training regimen or specific landmarks. These runs are personal so it will be the running guide along with the registered clients. We can go further than a walking tour, as far as a bus tour and on the roads that most buses and segways are unable to.At City Running Tours our goal is to shape each tour based on our client's needs both as a runner and a tourist and because of this, they love the intimacy, breadth of knowledge, and the unique and local perspective that our running tours offer. Our clients experience a city at street level through the eyes and legs of someone who works, plays and runs in that city. Share your love of running with us as we share our city with you! « less

Weather cooperated for the most part, but we did battle a period of time with some steady rain. No matter! The run was fun and interesting, with Johanna's knowledge evident as she explained the history of the various sites on Roosevelt Island. This was a 3-generation run: me, my daughter and my 2 year old grandson. All 3 of us... More

The run was great. My guide arrived early had the route planned. She had great knowledge of New York and was able to present the history and stories behind the landmarks. I would do this again.

Jill collected us from our apartment and we took a brief subway ride to Brooklyn for the start of our run. Over the following two and a half hours we wound our way through Brooklyn, over the bridge and then all the interesting sights of lower Manhattan, Chinatown, Little Italy, midtown and on to Central Park. All the way Jill... More

This was my first time to run with City Running tours....and it won't be my last! I had a great time. Brett (and Zach) took me through parts of the city I hadn't seen. We did just over 6 miles, through Wall street, Battery Park, over the Brooklyn Bridge and back over the Manhattan Bridge - with a bit of... More

Second time I have done the City Running tours, it is the best way to get exercise but at the same time a great tour. In fact it is far better - more information, more personal, cheaper and in less time by using the tour. I did the Central Park and Rooseveldt Island tours, both outstanding. The R.I tour was... More

We ran with Michael on the Bridges tour on Friday last week & have to say it was a great way to see the city. The tour lasts approximately an hour, so anyone with a 10k under their belt will feel comfortable. As there was just my wife & I the pace was much to our choosing, water was also... More

I had a great introduction to NYC with a run from Soho down to Wall Street over the Brooklyn Bridge and back via Manhattan Bridge thru Chinatown, Little Italy and home to Soho. My guide Patrick was new to the game but he was an absolute pro. I leant heaps as well as learning the lay of the land. I... More

A wonderful way to experience a city - I will establish such an offer in my home-town Berlin! Apart from a lengthy application procedure everything went really well. Jill picked us up and showed us a lot of interesting things on our tour. Thanks again!

I stumbled upon City Running Tours when I was looking for running routes in New York. I then found lots of enthusiastic reviews on trip advisor and figured it was worth giving them a try (it would be a good way to force myself to do a run - without the usual excuses of I'll do it tomorrow or I...

I am so glad we found City Running Tours! We were looking for a race the weekend that we were in NYC and I am so glad we didn't find one!! We met up with Karen at 8 for the Brooklyn tour and had a blast, what a great way to see an area while hanging with people who have... More
