Good job. What were the temps, wind and humidity like? I live 2 hours south of Duluth and I was pretty soaked with sweat after my 100 miler on the bike today. The half marathon is the Gary Bjorkland Half Marathon. Grandmas Marathon is the full marathon. Grandmas is my favorite marathon but I haven't done it for 2 years. Congrats on a nice finish.

Looks like you had a great race given the conditions today.  Heard it was killer hot!  GREAT JOB!  Particularly given the issues with your hammy's lately!

 

Congrats!

Great race!

I heard from a friend, who had a friend run the full, that it was super hot and windy.  She's a 3:20 marathoner and ran this year over 4 hours and spent a little time in the medical tent.

Glad to hear you had a good day.

Nice run - ESPECIALLY given all the training challenges you've had!  I heard it was a tough day.  Next year I'll need to join the fun!
