Running in Tokyo? Don’t just race — explore! ✨ 

From ancient temples to epic street food, the FIT team is making the most of every moment.

Highlights:

1️⃣Tsukiji Fish Market: Once the world’s largest wholesale fish market, Tsukiji remains a bustling hub for fresh seafood and local delicacies. The outer market offers a variety of street food and specialty shops, making it a must-visit for food enthusiasts.​
2️⃣Sensō-ji Temple: Located in Asakusa, Sensō-ji is Tokyo’s oldest temple, founded in 645 AD. Visitors can explore the vibrant Nakamise shopping street leading up to the temple, filled with traditional snacks and souvenirs.​
3️⃣Meiji Jingu Shrine: Nestled within a lush forest in Shibuya, this Shinto shrine is dedicated to Emperor Meiji and Empress Shoken. It’s a serene escape from the city’s hustle, offering peaceful walking paths and traditional Shinto architecture.​
4️⃣Shibuya Crossing: Dubbed the “world’s busiest pedestrian crossing,” Shibuya Crossing sees thousands of people scrambling across the intersection at once. It’s a symbol of Tokyo’s dynamic energy and a popular spot for photos.​

This Thursday’s Thankful Thursday vendor shoutout goes to the incredibly talented —an amazing artist, creative visionary, and dear friend.

When we set out to create a FIT logo, we wanted it to embody adventure, global connection, and a bold statement: we run the world. 🌏

With her artful eye, Leslie took that vision and turned it into something extraordinary. The logo she designed features all of the continents seamlessly woven into the tread of a sneaker, symbolizing how every step we take leaves our footprints on this shared world.

How cool is that?!

Partnering with Leslie is a dream - her ability to bring ideas to life is unmatched. If you’re in need of a bold logo or illustration, check her out at to connect and see more of her one of a kind designs.

Thank you, Leslie, for bringing our vision to life in such a meaningful way! 🤍
