Walkathon limits in Michigan

In Michigan you shall not "promote, conduct, or participate in any endurance contest known as a walkathon or similar endurance contest." (Mi. Stat. § 752.161) This does not apply if the event begins and ends on the same day or lasts a predetermined time less than 12 hours.

Has Michigan had a problem with walkathons lasting for days on end?

Ah, don't forget the penalty. Violations are punishable by a fine not to exceed $100, or up to 90 days in jail (I suppose to rest from the walkathon), or both. (Mi. Stat. § 752.162)
