Walisa Dickson's thoughts:
I chose to run this race as my first Full Marathon because my Dad had run it twice and enjoyed it! I remember seeing the smile on his face when he crossed that finish line the first time. I wanted to experience that. A run through Canada tunnels and across the bridge sets this apart from any other race hands down. I did the International Half as well. It is full of awesome runners, spectators, and volunteers. Although I live in Ohio now, this is home for me. I was so pleased with the entire race and communication leading up to the race, I ran it again the very next year. If a friend asked about running their first full or even half marathon, I would HIGHLY recommend Detroit.
