Comments:

Nice run with a lot of folks glad we found some most of the BT clan. Couldn't have asked for better weather and running with TwoHearted was nice, hopefully some of the pics I took of her turn out.

Nothing this was just for fun
Post race
Warm down:

Forgot to bring beer and finding a store in Detroit is tough. Next year I'll bring some food and beer as the bars were packed, not to mention will stay for the parade next year.

Event comments:

Nice race overall. The area was packed and trying to get water, beer or snacks after the finish was tough, then when it wasn't the beer was gone :(

Being a first timer at this wonderful event we learned some things and will come better prepared next year.

Thanks for the Brew's Curegirl!
