Summary
Joabe Barbosa just became the first person to run every single street in Chicago—77 neighborhoods, 5,000+ miles, 680 days—ending at Buckingham Fountain with cheers from friends and fans. Originally from Brazil, this mission wasn’t just about distance; it was about discovering Chicago as his second home, connecting with its people through all seasons, and spreading kindness. His journey even led to a major twist: after facing deportation due to a visa lapse, he’s now staying in the U.S. thanks to Roosevelt University. A story of grit, community, and unexpected good fortune. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
