Chicago, IL
To encourage people to enjoy the boulevards, we propose to set up fitness trail through the system in Logan Square. Many residents already run along the boulevards, and these 20 stations would be spread out to enhance a cardio exercise. Additionally, people who might not take advantage of the boulevards will be encouraged to exercise on/around them, increasing community health, promoting physical fitness, and neighborhood engagement.
Numbers on the map align with stations found here: http://www.fittrail.com/20station.html

This is a wonderful idea that follows the desire lines of how people are already using the boulevards. One need only look at the success of the Palmer Square path to see that the demand is there. Plus it connects to the Bloomingdale Trail, creating a much bigger trail system.

I run along the boulevards (in Logan) and would love to have alternative means of exercise in the area. Very cool idea!
