The seemingly endless lake to your left, the vast sprawling metropolis of Chicago to your right, running downtown on Lake Shore Drive is a great way to pass the time until the sweet release of death. Worrying about your student loans or how to break up with that guy who you've been with for five months now even though you don't really like him or have any real feelings at all? Look out onto Lake Michigan and allow the vastness of its waters to swallow your insignificant issues into its murky depths, or back toward the city as you marvel at the sheer willpower, skill, focus, and determination it took to build those breathtaking skyscrapers. You'll probably never leave behind nearly as important or lasting a legacy for humanity, but you did just burn 300 calories!
