The race runs through some interesting terrain in Shelby Township, MI but it is a good route. The problem we encountered was that of ice on the path. There has been some recent snow in Michigan (surprise surprise) and this clearing of the snow and melting / re-freezing has caused ice on the path. That made for some interesting surprises on the course due to sharp corners and tight quarters with other runners. Overall, it was a great race and I would definitely do it again in the future.

The shirt and other swag at the packet pickup before the race was excellent! There were a few vendors and it helped to get there early so putting the stuff back into my car was possible.

Parking is directly on-site or across the parking lot (if it is full already).

The race also includes a raffle for many donated items (golf certificates, gift certificates to restaurants, etc).

The race benefits many great causes, one of which being for animal health and betterment.

Check out this race if you live in the metro Detroit area of Michigan or anywhere nearby!
