When you start at the railway station, run towards Kaisaniemi, cross the Pitkäsilta bridge and turn left. Then follow the waterfront until you reach the railway bridge. After that continue straight away. There will be a long downhill and at the bottom you need to go left in order to be able to follow the waterfront and run around Töölönlahti anti clockwise. After you have done that, run back to the railway bridge, cross that and at the other side run the steep downhill and continue straight away. After a while you will come to "big" intersection where you might need to wait for the green light. At the other side you continue by running at the water front towards the Uspenski cathedral. After that you will run past the marketplace and continue running in Esplanadi park until the Teatteri restaurant. At the Stockmann department store you turn right and finish your run at the railway station.
This is an easy route for tourists because it starts and ends at the railway station. Locals can this too because it is adjustable. Adding laps around Töölönlahti or the loop around Katajanokka makes it easy to lengthen the run.
