For the next week, I'll be taking a minimalist approach to blogging.  I'll post daily but I'm going to just be posting a motivational picture of races that are on my bucket list each day.  Monday's post will still be my usual Hyland update on my marathon but the rest will be pictures.  Please enjoy the next week of photo's for races around the country:  To start things off, I found this great montage of pictures of Detroit.  You have to love your hometown race - the Detroit Marathon.  Here's a great collection of pictures that show off my hometown.

In order is:

1) Detroit Skyline
2) Spirit of Detroit statue
3) Greektown
4) Ambassador Bridge - I ran over this in the Detroit Marathon
5) Oops - don't know this one?
6) The Fox Theatre
7) Comerica Park

I thought I would include a little collage I did myself too:


Have a great day and....Keep Running!!!!

    1. You and Jim will need to put the Detroit Marathon on your list. International plus you've got a bridge and tunnel to cross. Get your passports!

    1. Yeah, this is located near Campus Martius Park. Campus Martius is great, in the Detroit helf it means you are almost done and it is the turn around in the Corktown 5K.
