This years grandma's marathon turned out to be the ideal day to hit a PR, for a lot of people. The weather going into the weekend looked a little iffy. Rain was in the forecast. As a runner, the weather can always cause a lot of worry / extra stress. But, it's out of our control, whatever happens, happens, right?!?
The morning of the race was perfect, cool, a few clouds and actually, as we got off the buses in Two Harbors, the sun was shining. As the race started, the clouds rolled in and remained. Ideal weather. mid - upper 50s .
As the race went on the weather remained the same, at one time mid race even misting. Crowds were awesome along the course, and aid stations were extremely well manned. Was very impressed.
Coming into the city of Duluth, the crowds did not disappoint.
Overall, fantastic race, beautiful course, cool weather. Ideal day for a 19 minute PR. Will Be going back again !
