I ran in a half-marathon on Sunday in Monroe Half Marathon, Slingshot 5K and Fun Run in Monroe, MI. Monroe is is about 17-miles north of Toledo, Ohio and about 35-miles south of Detroit, Michigan on the Lake Erie. The weather was 27*F when we left our apartment, and about 37*F when the race started.
Some Monroe Fun Facts:
- 3rd oldest city in Michigan
- Named after the 5th United States President, James Monroe
- Is the World Headquarters of La-Z-Boy
The Run is a fundraiser for Special Olympics Michigan
For those of you who have kept up over the years, this is 1/2 Marathon #8.
I finished the race 2hrs 53mins.
The Run took us through downtown Monroe, which was cute and quaint, with a historic feel.
