Fargo was a nice race - the entire city gets behind this race. It starts and finishes at the
Fargodome, which is a nice touch and provided nice cover, considering it was pouring rain at the start. I didn't realize until midway through the race that part of the course runs through Minnesota, which was cool and a nice prelude to the Twin Cities Marathon in October. I ended up sharing the last few miles with Janet (pictured below) who had previously run Grandma's Marathon in Duluth, Mn. Thanks to Janet's husband for my only race photo.
So I have 16 weeks until the Twin Cities Marathon on Oct. 2nd. I will likely treat Twin Cities as a training run for the Philadelphia Marathon in November but am still a little on the fence. The only thing I know for sure is I am anxious to run a ton of miles over the summer and to dedicate the bulk of it to training by heart rate. Other than that, I am just looking forward to running a bunch of races in the Fall.
