A Berkeley man has set out to walk every single street of his city, and after three years, he still isn't finished.
"David Letterman once said, 'Everything worth doing is worth overdoing,'" quoted Brian Bischof."It's fun to have hard goals that you can whittle away at over time."
It all started during the pandemic when Bischof, a mathematician, would go on long walks with Ravioli to pass the time. Soon, his daily strolls turned into a numbers game that needed to be solved. "What I've noticed is there are quite a few people just in my circles who are getting into this. San Francisco is really popular, and I know some people that are trying to do Oakland," he said.
So far, he's gone through five different pairs of shoes, pounding about 99 percent of Berkeley's pavement. But the last one percent has been a challenge.
