For this ride I wanted to map out my next long training run for Detroit Marathon. Previously I ran to North Ave Beach, so I had an estimate on where my turnaround would be which ended up being Diversey Harbor.
Ohio Street Beach
Ohio Street Beach is actually one of my favorite parts of the Lakefront Path because it is where I encounter multitude of fitness enthusiasts doing a number of activities ranging from walking, swimming, inline skating, running, cycling, sightseeing, etc.
Diversey Harbor
Entering one of the more congested areas of my cycling route. With vehicles I tend to keep my distance while having the mindset of what could happen as I’am on my bike, especially in the downtown area where everyone just wants to get to their destination resulting in careless behaviors.

would you classify this as reconnaissance or an expeditionary force?
I’d definitely say reconnaissance
makes sense. how do you have a one man expeditionary force?
I love to ride a bike when the environment is clean and full of nature spots.
So I’am guessing that you don’t ride much?
wow that just brings back so many memories. I walked a lot of your bike ride over the years!
Next year I would like to switch my routes up and go more towards the south. I actually used to ride down towards it when I lived in Edgewater.
Coming to Chicago from Indiana I used to drive through the south side all the time!
Lately I have been contemplating a Northernly Island (Near Southside) run, maybe Chinatown.
that would be a great ride in the fall 🙂
If we get great temperatures this weekend maybe I will plan it sooner. I do know that with Chicago Marathon being this weekend, temperatures are normally crap.
you are planning to run the Detroit marathon right?
