The Brooksie Way is not merely a road race through inviting Oakland County neighborhoods, a vibrant university campus or a lush trail system. It's a model for life, a model for living. Dream big. Dream often and follow your dreams. But most importantly, do it now and do it all the way.
That's the Brooksie Way.
That's the way Brooks Stuart Patterson would have done it: All the way, all the time.
