I felt this was one of the better organized events that I’ve done. Communication prior to the race was well done and answered all of my questions. Packet pick-up was a little hectic, but it was noted in the communications that if you came early you needed to be prepared to wait. However, I was doing both the 5k and the full and a volunteer guided me through picking up both bibs/shirts so it was all good. The buses on Sunday AM left right on time and I’ve never done another race that had coffee, bananas and bagels available while you waited. The scenery for the race was amazing! I stopped a couple of times along the way to take pictures. And so many roads were totally closed – that was a first for me. Finishing on the bridge was great! The post race food was good – nothing like having an ice cold diet coke waiting for you! I didn’t take advantage of the free beer – the line was just a bit too long after running for 5 hours, but that’s on me. All in all, I highly recommend this race.

I ended up signing up for this race at the last minute because another race was cancelled. The race organizers were offering free entry for the first person from each state – I ended up being the first from NC. In addition to free entry, I also ended up with a nice Hydro Flask and Buff. All of that made it totally worthy it!
The marathon started before the half marathon which meant we got to the aid stations first! That was a big help! The aid stations were well stocked and the volunteers were great.
The course had us run through the stadium of Western Michigan University so you could see yourself running on the jumbo tron ,which was pretty cool.
We ran through some nice neighborhoods and the neighbors were out – some had music, some handed out food. Not the most crowd support, but not the least either.
The course was a good one. I was afraid it would be too flat but there were just enough hills to break it up. I ended up with a much better time than anticipated, but the weather helped. It was overcast and never got over 60 degrees.
I don’t remember much about the food at the end…but there were bananas and chocolate milk, so I was happy. All runners did get a free beer.
All in all, it was a good race and I’m glad it ended up being my Michigan race. If you like big marathons, it’s not for you. But if you like a smaller race with enthusiastic support, this is a good one.
