__/ HEAT THE STREETS AND DETROIT'S WINTER BLAST, SAT, FEBRUARY 10, 2007

- Now in its third year, the very successful Heat the Streets 10K and 10K run has joined with Detroit's Winter Blast to be the "hottest" place to be. The runs begin at the Boll Family YMCA on Broadway at 8:00 am. Heat the Streets supports The Heat and Warmth Fun (THAW) and features a fast, flat, USATF certified course. Heat the Streets will receive special Winter Blast goodies including a free ride on the 200-foot snow slide. The Winter Blast runs from February 9 through February 11 and includes music, food, dog-sledding exhibitions, snowbaording exhibitions and snowshoeing.
