Overview
- Andrew “Andy” Bowman of Ferndale repeated as men’s champion in 2:16:10, improving on his 2024 winning time.
- Christina Welsh of St. Petersburg, Florida, won the women’s race in 2:46:59, finishing just over a minute ahead of Reagan Justice.
- Organizers reported roughly 26,000 registrants across the marathon, two half marathons, relay, 5K and 1‑mile events.
- The signature route crossed into Canada over the Ambassador Bridge and returned through the Detroit–Windsor Tunnel, which temporarily closed for the race.
- Wind and steady rain shaped race dynamics, and Bowman’s finish narrowly missed the 2:16 qualifying standard for the U.S. Olympic Team Trials.
