Run Description
Started out running down Lawrence, crossed the river and ran through the park to Lincoln. Took Lincoln towards Jersey/Kedzie, but turned left and went back into the park on the other side of the river. There was no real trail, but I followed another set of footprints along the river until I was running through the woods and ducking under trees, passing geese and squirrels in the snow. Like a country run in the middle of the city. Very enjoyable, though I didn't know for sure if there'd be an exit at the end of my trail. Luckily at Foster I just had to climb over the sidewalk railing to be back on the road.
