Gym

Every morning I go to my gym to run.
I always run about 2km for 30 min: meaning 4 km/hr. (very slow.. but it is said this is very effective for burning fat.

Maybe in other countries, the fee is almost same.
My gym is located in a hotel near the station. Its monthly fee is about 10,000 yen (ca. $100) incl 8,000 yen/monthly fee + locker fee 1,000 yen/mo + towel fee 1,000/mo.

Maybe the big difference between other countries' gym is that the gym in Japan normally have big bath in addition to sauna and shower rooms. We Japanese have a custom to be in the tub everyday.
I'ts so nice to take a long bath after exercising. (of course, everybody has nothing on.) Many foreigners hesitate to this custom.
