Über die Veranstaltung
The Detroit Free Press Marathon isn’t just a race — it’s an experience you can’t get anywhere else. It all started in 1978, when Neal Shine, then managing editor of the Detroit Free Press, came back from the Falmouth Road Race with a bold idea: Detroit deserved a world-class marathon of its own. More than four decades later, that idea has grown into Michigan’s largest road race and one of the most unforgettable marathon weekends in the country.
Pacer
Pace groups are provided for the Marathon, International Half-Marathon, and Motor City Half-Marathon (e.g., 3:00, 3:15 h). On Pace supplies pacers who lead target-paced groups and wave starts; pacer participation is included in the entry fee.
