It’s official! After a full year of running for fun with my main squeeze Lola, I am ready to tackle another marathon! In 2019, I will be taking on Grandma’s Marathon in Duluth, MN (don’t worry, not in the winter)! I’m only semi looking forward to training through the winter/early spring (NOT) BUT I am super excited to run a new marathon on what rumor has it, is a downhill course!
While I am running through a new city, I am still raising funds for cancer research. Cancer has been a jerk lately and as long as it continues to affect the people I love, I will continue to fight in any way that I can. So if you’d like to support, you can make a donation HERE.
And since I haven’t officially started training and don’t have any pics yet, here is a pic from Saturday night’s American Cancer Society event that was filled with puppies (because who doesn’t like puppies?!)
Runs on treats 
Grandmas is my favorite from the 4 marathons I have done. It is well organized and a lot of fun. Route is not terribly difficult. Read The Finish Line by Strommen, he talks about the race with regards to life. I can’t wait to hear what you think about it.
I’m so excited! I have heard only good things about this race! Thanks for the book rec, I will check it out!
