    Post "The Great Marathon Races"

    This thread is dedicated to all the great marathon races from the golden age of boat racing.I am starting this thread with a marathon race that is one of the last truely active marathon races left in the country for kneel-downs. It's the "Top'O Michigan" Marathon Race.http://www.mich-web.com/top-o-mich/ .Many great marathon races have gone to the wayside of lack of public waterway space and state and local agencys not granting permits to hold such races anymore. If you have any history of some great marathon race sites and race stories of the past,please feel free to share them with us,for the days of true Marathoning are truely behind us,and the need for them to be preserved on web sites like this is important so they are not forgotten.
