Grandma’s Marathon Organizers Reveal Huge Event

It's insane to think that Grandma's Marathon weekend is only three months away! The time is flying by and the panic about training has started to set in. (For me at least. Ha!)

It's going to be an extra special year, especially because it is the 50th anniversary of the event. It will be historic and event organizers are going all out!

It seems runners are going all out as well, with every single race selling out in a matter of just twelve hours. For reference, the races usually sell out in a month or so, like in the year prior. Everyone wants in on the fun.

It is one of the best weekends in Duluth and the weekend just got even better! Grandma's Marathon organizers just announced something huge that major runners will definitely want to be a part of.

Kara Goucher & Des Linden To Record To Live Podcast Pre-Grandma's

I love podcasts so this is exciting! The duo will record a live episode of their podcast - 'Nobody Asked Us' - during race weekend. The news was just shared on Wednesday (March 18th) completely making my day!

Of course, both are famous Olympians and today, host the podcast together. They share their unfiltered opinions on running, the industry of running and of course, life itself. The best part? You can be there when they record their podcast live!

Tickets will first be offered to those that register ahead of time for a special presale, which will take place starting at 10 a.m. on Wednesday, March 25th. The rest of the tickets will go on sale to the public that Friday.

You can also purchase one of 50 VIP tickets, which will be $100 bucks. These tickets include a meet and greet with the duo before the show and great seating in the front of the venue. I cannot think of a better way to ring in this milestone race weekend.
