My name is Phil Kidd. I moved to Cleveland in 2019 and enjoy running recreationally. I got tired of running the same routes during the pandemic and wanted a big goal to keep me motivated. So, I decided to try to run every street in Cleveland. From what I could research online, I don't believe anyone has done this before.
My goal with this blog is not to simply just log my miles but take readers with me, exploring the history and images of the streets of Cleveland. If you follow this blog, we'll be exploring the city together.
