It's on my calendar, so I hope to be there. It'll be interesting to run a new route. |

I follow the route but my best time is four or five hours, picking up liquid refreshments at the establishments along the way tends to slow me down quite a bit. |

I will be there along with a group of friends. The new route is great they started it last year. The old route was sort of a drag, except for the part where you ran by the main corktown area twice. But anyways it is always a blast especially the parade and post drinking afterwards. Tell all your friends. Ever since I have been going since '98 I have a group of around 30 that I have gotten addicted to one of the best drinking fests in detroit, next to opening day. Drink up all..... |

Finally ran my first outdoors jog of the year yesterday...from Eastern Market to the River, through Hart Plaza then home...so I think I'm trained enough for a mid-day run with Guinness at the end. Can't wait. Sport? Where are ya, man? Time to get Panson off yer butt about never actually running... |

I would post all my previous corktown medals.. but.. you know. That's a great race. I have not done the new course. It sounds even better. Loved the beer fest at the end. I never expected that so you can imagine my pleasant surprise. |
