IOWA 7/11/2019: Mainly marathons - Heartland series Clinton IA
On July 10, I flew into Minneapolis to start a 3 day series with the Mainly Marathons group in Iowa, Wisconsin and Minnesota. After I arrived into Minneapolis around 6pm, I drove for 5 hours to Clinton, Iowa for the following day’s marathon.
It was a long drive on narrow roads. The views along the way we’re amazing!
I got to my hotel around 11pm and went right to bed. The next morning I got up early for a 5am start.
It was great seeing familiar faces from the circuit. I’ve met new friends along the way and it’s nice to catch up with them on the runs.
The course was 14 laps on a trail course.
Ir was a bit hot and I kept cool with plenty of ice water. I took it very easy on the run, since I had another 2 marathons for the next 2 days.
The medal was nice. Like other Mainly marathon series, the medals from each series link together.
If you’re looking to set hard to achieve records or just want to run a lot of marathons in many different states, check out Mainly Marathons!
Join me on the #50in50 for the Gweneviere Mann Foundation, with many ways to get involved.
PLEASE DOWNLOAD GWENEVIERE’S SONG
She was excited about releasing an album that she had just finished, but she passed before she could realize that dream, so we just recently released a single "What I Can Be" off of her album for her so that we could fulfill that dream for her. Download it here
Together we will save lives through early detection programs for lung cancer and brain tumors.
I ❤️ you Gwen.
