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!

 Hope to see you there.

 

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, going anywhere between 7 to 13 miles total.  Please register by Friday the 18th in order for us to have enough donuts for everyone!
