AN ELEPHANT NEVER FORGETS A GOOD RUN 🐘

About this creation

"AN ELEPHANT NEVER FORGETS A GOOD RUN 🐘" is a GPS art route drawn in Chicago, United States that takes the shape of an animal. This part of United States has the kind of grid that keeps the shape recognisable once it's recorded on a watch.

The route covers 11.9 km, roughly 1h11 at an easy running pace, which makes it a longer run. Every turn follows real roads from OpenStreetMap: Draw My Loop's snapping algorithm keeps the outline on the actual street network.

Grab the GPX file, push it to a watch via Strava or Garmin Connect, and head out. Once the activity is recorded, the drawing shows up on the map automatically. You can also fork this route from the map and adapt it to your own neighbourhood before exporting.
