Logistical Tips (Hotels, Restaurants, Parking, Discounts, etc.) We stayed at a hotel near the finish line, but if you drive in for your packet pick up, there were lines of cars the afternoon before the race to get to the convention center. It had been 90's the previous days and I've read that it has been close to freezing on other years.This is a course with little to no shade if there is full sun. It was supposed to be 65 and rain and the sun arrived full force on mile 9 and temperatures hovered in mid-70's. A "hill" at mile 22 seems bigger than it is by the simple fact that it comes at the end. Race Tips This course is rolling - some slight graded, long inclines, but nothing too steep or intimidating. Not only was Grandmas team of volunteers organized, they were the most welcoming helpful and friendly group that wanted nothing more than everyone to have fun and be happy. Loved the easy packet pick up, great pre-race dinner, easy transportation to the start, beautiful scenery along Lake Superior and one of the most fabulous finish line parties. ![]() Well organized, coordinated marathon By SBC about 2017 Review This is just about the most well organized, coordinated marathon I have ever had the pleasure to run. ![]() ![]()
