Today @matt_weiss_ and I are going to attempt the unofficial @cta 'L' Challenge! The goal is to visit all 145 CTA stations as fast as possible. I'll be documenting the excursion via this Twitter thread, so check back here as we progress through the system! #MBLrun
Due to construction and station closures at Berwyn and Lawrence on the Red line, we will have doors open at 143 stations in the network. This will still qualify under Class A for the record keepers: bmcfadden.me/43DMMxa
