Loreen Niewenhuis has been taking a really long walk on the beach. Since March, she's hoofed it from Chicago through Indiana, up through Michigan, down through Wisconsin, following the shoreline in her attempt to walk all the way around Lake Michigan. She finishes the last leg of her trek at Navy Pier on September 26.
