🌳 Forest Jog in the Middle of Tokyo + Cozy Cafe Hangout ☕ | Meet New Friends

Note: We're back after the summer break! 🌿

• Spots fill up quickly. • Every session, we usually have 50%-50% of new faces and repeaters, repeaters will be granted higher priority when spots filled up. • If your plans change, please update your RSVP by Thursday. • It's a small group, so every spot matters. • Short-term travellers are not allowed to join.

◆━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━◆ ㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤWelcome! 🌿 ◆━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━◆ One simple idea: make new friends while doing something good for yourself on a weekend morning. This is a social event first. The jog gets the conversation started, and the cafe afterwards is where the real hangout happens. Think of it as a light morning activity (ちょい朝活) — something to come back to, not a one-off.

First time joining? 🌿 Group size is capped at 6–8 so everyone actually gets to talk. That's also why spots go fast. 🌿 The jog is 1.5–2.0 km at a talking pace. Walk breaks are completely fine. 🌿 Almost everyone comes alone, and the cafe afterwards is optional.

⚠️Probably not the right fit if you:

• 😤 are travelling from far away and expecting a big event • 😭 want a serious workout • 😰 are looking for a dating scene (relaxed and friendly, but not romantic) • 😵‍💫 want to meet many people in one session — attend a few instead

◆━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━◆ ㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤWhy You'll Love It ◆━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━◆ 🌳 A real forest in the middle of Tokyo — Rinshi-no-Mori is a former forestry research site, packed with huge mature trees. It really doesn't feel like Tokyo. ☕ A cozy cafe to wind down in — Lily's Cafe is warm, friendly, and easy to stay in for an hour. Lily's Cafe → [https://www.instagram.com/lilyscafe_m](https://www.instagram.com/lilyscafe_m) 💬 Socializing is the whole point — chatty pace, no one left behind, leave with new friends. 🗣 English-friendly — host language is English, but most people speak Japanese too.
