Dr. Marc Abrams, a family-practice physician, was known for his daily, shirtless treks through the neighborhood. The 58-year-old was found dead in a jacuzzi Wednesday along Moreno Drive.

Dr. Abrams was a well-known fixture in the community because of his daily, 15-mile walks, which he had been doing since the 80s. He once shared his route with a local reporter, saying, "I usually loop around the lake, and then go down West Silverlake to Rowena, and then Hyperion, and then Griffith Park Blvd. down Sunset, back down Silverlake to the reservoir, and then back and loop around the lake again."

Abrams would often read newspapers along his journey.

He also did some 4,000 push-ups each day.
