For this weekend's long run, I decide to run the path of the Great Chicago Fire of 1871. I started up a little farther north of where the fire ended, at the statue of Phillip Henry Sheridan. 

Audio problems with a different camera setup for this run made a lot of the narration for this video unuseable. 

For the route, I started at the Sheridan statue and ran down Sheridan road to Lincoln Park. From there, I stopped at Grant's statue in the park before heading down Michigan Avenue and the Water Tower.

The Water Tower was one of the few structures that survived the fire. The interior was completely lost, but the exterior structure remained. 

From Michigan Avenue, I cut over to LaSalle until Jackson. From Jackson, I went over the Jefferson, until I hit the location of Mrs. O'Leary's barn. Today, the location is commemorated with a sculpture and is home to the Chicago Fire Department training facility. 

For the run home, I took Roosevelt over to Michigan Avenue to run through some sculptures and the bean. After running back up the Magnificent Mile, I cut back over to the lakefront path to take me back home.

Thanks for watching. Leave a comment to let me know you stopped by!
