"L" Marathon

By Rachelle Bowden in News on Jun 17, 2005 2:55PM

Now here's one marathon that even Chicagoist could complete! On Buzznet a user by the name of "funpants" posted that he's been thinking about doing this adventure for a few years and then finally did - he rode the entire "L" system (and took photos). And it only took him 12 hours. The only part Mr. Funpants missed was the Yellow line to Skokie and that was only because it doesn't run on the weekends.

MF got off the train 2 times for potty breaks and a snack, even though he did see a CTA maintenance working pissing right on the tracks, he took the higher road and actually sought out some restroom facilities.

This adventure actually took place back in February, but this is the first time Chicagoist saw it and was pretty impressed. Also, check out Funpants' other photos on Buzznet.
