Fargo Marathon 2010 heats up
Starting Line for Marathon From Fargo Marathon The 6th edition of the Fargo Marathon will be run this weekend and it appears to be some really great weather arriving just in time. In January 2010 Runner's World Magazine ranked the Fargo Marathon first in value and 8th best marathon in the U.S. Wow! I don't know how we do it. A marathon in Montana gets the top spot. Boston comes in at 5th. The marathon course once again has been changed. The marathon route looks a bit more serpentine this year but will indeed pass through Moorhead this year (it didn't last year due to the extended flood.) It may get a little dicey in the neighborhoods just south of downtown Fargo, as the course twists and turns through those neighborhoods 3 times. Looks like it will be one of the better places to watch if you are on foot or bike or board. Lindenwood Park should be a good place to spectate as well. The new race, the 10k, will not cross into Moorhead due to the 12th Avenue toll bridge...
