I wanted to run across the footbridge for the Mississippi River before we move. My friend Kristie who happens to be my running buddy was also planning a move. We wanted to plan a long run and run on some of the Missouri trials but decided to at least get a short one in before she had to work one day. It is a mile long bridge that connects the Illinois and Missouri sides of the river. It was fun and we decided to go back with our families. Good thing we got the short run over in when we did cause she ended up moving sooner than planned and is already gone. Don't let the gray skies fool you, it was very humid and warm that day.
I went back with the family during session of conference. We thought it would be nice to get some wiggles out. It was crazy windy though!

The bridge was not always foot traffic only and used to be part of historic route 66.
You can see 270 from the bridge.
We've always wondered what these buildings were sticking up out of the river. Turns out they used to be water towers for the city of St. Louis
