Extreme Veteran 613 | Subject: RE: Metro Health Grand Rapids marathon : Official Thread Much needed, that bit by the water treatment plant and then back thru the industrial part was BAD! I'm glad Don was able to make the change, otherwise I think it is an awesome event. IMHO, the support at GR is FAR superior to Chicago or Detroit. I'll be there! |

Expert 819 | Subject: RE: Metro Health Grand Rapids marathon : Official Thread Good to hear. I live in Spring Lake, and I thought logistically that getting to race in GR for my first Mary would be easier. Then I was envious of some friends going to Chicago the weekend before. It is nice to hear a veteran, who has done the others, love on GR. |

Extreme Veteran 565  Jenison , MI | Subject: RE: Metro Health Grand Rapids marathon : Official Thread I have done the hlaf twice and the full once and love it. Not sure about the new route I have not had a chance to get out and run it yet. But it should be good. |

Extreme Veteran 565 Jenison , MI | Subject: RE: Metro Health Grand Rapids marathon : Official Thread It cost that much because you have waited so long. Sign up early and it's cheaper. It does come with good food and all the beer you want at the end though. |

Member 44 Ann Arbor | Subject: RE: Metro Health Grand Rapids marathon : Official Thread I'm not doing the GR marathon (in favor of Detroit), but I will be in town to do the 20-mile training run on Saturday. I think it's on the course, or at least part of it? |

New user 14 West MI | Subject: RE: Metro Health Grand Rapids marathon : Official Thread I'll be there...for my 3rd full (ran Milwaukee '08 and Bayshore this past May). First time at GR. I've run the half twice. Don Kerns puts on a nice race. Looking forward to seeing the new course. I went to support a friend last year and am glad to see that the water treatment plant bit is gone. |

Expert 819 | Subject: RE: Metro Health Grand Rapids marathon : Official Thread So what is everyone planning on wearing? Just talked with a co=worker who ran Chicago yesterday nad it was 30 at the start and 39 at the finish. Looks to be a little warmer this Sunday in GR. Any thoughts? |
