detroit’s premier running community

Wow, I don’t even know where to begin, rundetroit has been busy doing everything except blogging. ½ of rundetroit has been pregnant, and the other half was training his ass off all summer long. Here are some photo’s to catch you up on our summer and fall.

 Took a road trip to see the Tigers in St. Louis.

 Spent an amazing week on the island of Anguilla.  This place rocks.  rundetroit attempted to go for a run on the island, only to be chased by multiple dogs, cutting my run short and instead opting for a swim in the ocean.

Multiple concerts, including Wilco, Trevor Hall, BRUCE, Howie Day, Phish, Widespread Panic, and a bunch of Tiger games.

In the middle of all this fun, part of rundetroit was pregnant, and the other part was training his ass off.  It was the summer of Marc, who completed multiple sprint triathons and finished off the season with the Benton Harbor, Whirlpool 1/2 Ironman Triathlon.  This was no small task.  A 1.2 mile swim in Lake Michigan, followed by a 56 mile bike ride, into a brisk wind I might add, only to finish off with a 13.1 mile run in a cold 55 degree rain.  6 1/2 hours of triathlon awesomness.  Oh, then a 2 1/2 hr. car ride home.  I could not have done this without the killer Steve Zager who kicked ass that day as well.

rundetroit also ran!  I completed my 10th marathon in as many years, finishing the Columbus (Ohio) Marathon with a Personal Record, 3:55.  It was a beautful day and a great race, highly recommened.  Again, the killer Steve Zager put in a great showing that day as well.

And the biggest and best news of 2009, and what put us so far behind in keeping you all updated was JONAH HARPER NAKISHER, born November 2, 2009.  This was the most insane, intense, emotional experience EVER…and amazing. 

rundetroit.com onesie’s will be coming soon!!!  We will continue to keep you updated.  xo rundetroit.
