What an awesome way to see Amsterdam!

http://www.touristrunamsterdam.com/wp/ This idea is pretty cool. It's the sightseers guide to Amsterdam, and it isn't on an open-top bus or a guided walk. You JOG around to enjoy the sights of Amsterdam whilst burning off a few calories. Anyone taking part? 

Haha that's a good idea, but I love my relaxing holiday's too much to run around a busy city.  If I was any good at running I'd maybe think about it but for now it's beachy hols for me!  Are you taking part Laura?

That's a really cool idea - especially if you're only there for a couple of days - see a chunk of the place in an hour - and burn off all the calories you'd probably put on whilst you're out there.

Yep you could do all your sightseeing in the first hour on a guided jog, then go for something a little more relaxing in the afternoon. I know what you mean though Helen, not everyone wants to keep up their fitness routine on a weekend break! I do think it's a good idea for fitness enthusiasts.

That's a really good idea - especially if you're into running. I'd prefer a power walk version so I'd have enough time to take pictures whilst we walked - I guess walking it would probably just make it a regular tour though..

What a cool (/tiring) idea! It would certainly make you feel less guilty if you did the usual holiday thing of pigging out during meals if you'd been for a sight seeing run that morning.

I'm not sure I could really appreciate the sights if I was jogging round them... Good idea in theory though!

True ... but it'd still be good for burning the calories! You could run to each landmark, stop and take pictures, then carry on running. Or do that but power walk.

Good plan batman! I can then recover from each running section when I stop to take a ridiculous amount of photos.

Imagine being on this tour as a walker and you'd have loads of sweaty people running past you at each tourist attraction!!

sounds like a great holiday

Haha that would be so intimidating - a big stampede of sweaty people running towards you.

I imagine there's a few casualites on this sight-seeing tour! I would definitely fall over

Me too. I can just picture me running along trying to take pictures of everything and tripping over head first :(

Haha me too!

me three! So clumsy when I'm running

Haha oh dear, sounds like you two would just come back with a lot of pictures of the pavement from tripping over!

Hahaha Ross_M this made me laugh so much.

Alright chill out!
