Motivation
From the website of the Detroit Freepress Marathon
The marathon, half marathon and relays are international events crossing US and Canadian borders twice. It is imperative that you accurately complete all information on the registration form, including date of birth, citizenship, and green card information (if applicable). The half marathon run and walk starts at 7:15 a.m. You must be able to make it to the entrance of the Detroit-Windsor Tunnel (less than 8 miles) by no later than 9:45 a.m. Pacers will be provided and will maintain the pace needed to make it to the tunnel entrance on time. If you do not make it to the tunnel by 9:45 a.m., your race is over. DO NOT ATTEMPT TO CROSS BORDERS WITHOUT A NUMBER. Both borders will be heavily secured and patrolled. Anyone attempting to cross the bridge or tunnel without a visible number will be arrested. Crossing borders illegally is a federal offense. Such a crime will remain a part of your record.
How's that for motivation?

You'll love it, Ed. I can't tell you how very strange it feels to be in Canada without any vehicle. No plane, no car, just feet. Its cool.
Make sure you get there in time! :)
