On what was supposed to be a Sunday recovery run, I chart out a course to visit some of my favorite Hebru Brantley murals in Chicago.

The first one that I looked for, Chi Boy, was actually no longer there. A modern luxury apartment high rise now blocks it. From there, I went up to the Randolph Street area to check out a mural on the side of the Urban Belly restaurant. A nice surprise, though, was there was a black and white Hebru Brantley on the wall of their patio. I had never seen that piece before, and it was a lot of fun. From there, it was a bit of a trip up to the Nike Bucktown store, where there is a group of Fly Boys on the side of the store. The last Hebru Brantley I visited was all the way up in Uptown, five miles from Bucktown. 

In all, I was originally expecting to run about 10 or 11 miles at a leisurely pace. But instead of taking the train home from Uptown, I decided I would just run. And that added quite a bit of miles. And while there were some water fountains available, I didn't have any food with me, and my legs felt quite dead from the hard 16 mile workout the day before.

Thanks for watching. Leave a comment to let me know what (and where) your favorite Hebru Brantley is!
