You may or may not have heard them zoom over the city early this morning (we didn't; thank you, Xanax!) but they were up there. "They" being F16 fighter jets. But what were they doing up there? Testing out the city's new flight path restrictions, of course. Per Chicago Breaking News:
More than 2,000 Chicago Public School students from all over the city came to Douglas Park on Saturday for the second-annual Fun Run, hosted by nonprofit Chicago Run. The fun run, which is the culmination of a year-long classroom exercise project, attracted students and parents to a one mile course around the park. Over the course of the school year, students have logged more than 136,000 miles in a Chicago Run database, running 3-5 times per week during school hours. Organizers said the program serves at least 4,000 students in 21 elementary schools throughout the city. The program, including a fall Fun Run, will pick up when classes start next year.
