Presented By:

Join Duluth Running Co. and our partners for three FREE long runs (and three parties!) as we build towards Grandmas Marathon, Duluth’s premier running event.

Designed to fit perfectly into a training schedule for either Grandma's Marathon or the Gary Bjorkland Half, these runs will help you build confidence, fitness, and community as we approach the events.

All are welcome to join, whether you’re training for a spring race or just wanting to get out and stay active with a group.

After each long run, we'll have a post long-run party, featuring Underwood Coffee!

 

Our Runs:

We're Just Getting Started!

April 19th, 8 am @ Duluth Running Company

Our first run will start at Duluth Running Company at 8am,  with donuts and Underwood Coffee post run at the store!

 We'll run up the shore, mainly on the Lakwalk, either 7 or 13 miles total.  Please register by Friday the 18th in order for us to have enough donuts for everyone!

Our second run will meet at Spirit Mountain at 8am and run the Willard Munger State Trail!

Go The Distance

The premier event of the season. Join us for a preview of the Grandma’s Marathon course with a long run down the scenic North Shore highway.

Choose either a 12-mile or 20-mile route, with water and nutrition stations along the way. All runners meet at DRC and take a bus to their chosen starting point — Salaka Rd for 20 miles or Ryan Rd for 12 miles.

Be sure to select the “Bus to the start” option when registering.

Stick around after the run for a post-run party at DRC featuring Underwood Coffee and a food truck.

Go the distance. Then celebrate it!
