Running around the big city

Posted Monday, February 25, 2008, 4:55 AM by Lonely Planet

What do you do if you've only got an hour to see Rome, Berlin or New York?

The (UK) Observer newspaper's Expert Traveller feature, which regularly breaks new travel trends first, might have the answer. Sightjogging is, as it sounds, guided city tours which mixes discovering your destination with a leg-stretch of up to 90 minutes.

Guide or no guide, running is a cheap, fast and fun way to explore many cities which makes evening beer o'clock all the sweeter.

Anyone got any tips for a top-notch sightseeing sprint around their home town?
