To be my first marathon it was great. From the expo to the race. Didn't expect it to be this good been to other expos this one was great. I would do this race again. I'm from Chicago. I always volunteer but

Letas face it, there is nothing else like this! Start in Muskegon and run by sandy beaches on the Great Lakes, awesome late summer temps - warm in the afternoon and cool at night, quaint lakeside towns, beautiful woodland roads and farm country, and a fantastic party awaits you in Traverse

Absolutely amazing...the cheering, the volunteers, the course, the organization of getting to the start....simply perfect!!
