I just registered for Detroit Marathon on January 1st, right at midnight! Detroit marathon was my secondary option, if all did not go well with the Chicago Marathon lottery, which it did not for those that have not been following my writings.
Part of me had a funny feeling that I would not have been selected in the Chicago Marathon lottery, so I started planning my trip to Detroit, as far as identifying airports, hotels, restaurants, and places to visit during a weekend in the city.
As the weeks go on, I would like to share with you all how I plan my training for a marathon (26.2 miles), as well as some of the sites in Detroit that I plan to visit on marathon weekend. Detroit Marathon will be my 20th marathon ever ran! To me, Detroit is an intriguing city with similarities to Chicago. For where the city was, and how far it has come, it is very underrated in my opinion.

Wow.. good luck no matter you are very fit.
Thank you very much, Mavic
I thought you were meant to run away from Detroit…
Definitely not running away from Detroit, I’m running towards it
I’ve never seen it done that way before…
I’m running towards Detroit, and I’m going to kick its ass w/ pictures shared doing it : )
I wish you lots of success
You actually just gave me an idea with the montage. I have shared things on YouTube, and Periscope while conducting my training. Definitely interested in it.
Thank you for the wish. I look forward to sharing it with you all
are you going to do a training montage?
With your great enthusiasm and perseverance in training, I hope you will get the best results at any marathon.
Thank you, and I hope to share some of my memories on Virily.
You’re most welcome, Thomas.
This will be exciting to hear about. I have never been to Detroit.
I cannot help but to smile thinking about it. I cannot wait to share some of the memories
