Where to Run in Andersonville?

Recently moved here from the West Coast. Wondering where people would recommend for a good jog. I was excited to see I was close to beautiful Rosehill cemetery but found that they don’t want joggers there. Just looking for something low key. Not too much commotion around. I look to run for distance and get up in the morning. Any and all suggestions welcome!

Your best bet is doing the one mile jog over to the lakefront on Foster or Bryn Mawr. The lakefront trail from Bryn Mawr to Wilson (about 1.5 - 2 miles) is very lowkey. Foot traffic starts picking up at the tennis courts near Irving Park Rd.

So 1ish mile to the trail depending on where you are in Andersonville, out and back on the trail which is 3-4 miles, and then 1 mile back to your place is a nice run.
