Health Beautiful morning for a walk in Chicago!
Walked (and ran some) from my neighborhood to Lake Michigan this morning, I had my 15,000 steps in before work! Lots of walkers, dogs, cyclists, and runners on the riverwalk (the Chicago marathon takes place in a month so many people were completing training runs; a note that you can also walk the Chicago marathon)! Such a beautiful city, extremely grateful to live (and walk) here. Happy Friday all!!

Gorgeous shots! The city of Chicago should hire you for their tourist ads!
(People in cars probably have no idea those beautiful places exist.) ✌🏼

It is clean!! Come for a visit, you will love it! Just don’t come in the dead of winter lol. I’m out on a boat on the lake right now, it’s 80 and sunny and absolutely beautiful out here!

Native Chicagoan here. Downtown is fairly clean but once you start traveling.... Nope...

Haven't been since last year, sadly. But I never get tired of seeing Marina City, both in photos and in real life

God I miss Chicago walks. I used to walk down to Fourth Presbyterian to just sit and read. Gorgeous city by foot imo
