One of the very best weekends in Duluth is almost here! Grandma's Marathon is just a few weeks away.

It is a week I always look forward to. I love running the half but I also just love seeing people come here from all over and the excitement that you can feel in the air.

If you aren't running any races and want to be a part of the iconic weekend, you should consider being a volunteer! You can even volunteer if you are racing.

There are still a bunch of volunteer positions open for the big weekend and they will put you right in the middle of the action.
