Detroit Free Press/Flagstar Marathon
Detroit - October 18, 2009 (run/walk, full/half)

One of a select few races around the world that can truly be called an international race - its course really does take runners across two nations - the Detroit Free Press Marathon & Half Marathon features an urban route that takes runners through the streets of the Motor City and over into Ontario for a run along the banks of the Detroit River. The race even takes runners underground for a mile-long stretch of the race, between the eighth and ninth miles through the Detroit-Windsor Tunnel under the river.
