Rain, Rain, Go Away: Fargo Marathon 2010

Image
A wet morning in Fargo instead of a warm one. Could this race go to a mudder? :) Just moments from the start of the full marathon. I already hear the half approaching middle Fargo from my perch. The rain is letting up a bit but definitely still wet. If the wind and sun return by 9 it may dry up. Well, last night was fantastic. The 5k went on without a hitch as far as I could tell. Inside reports say it was very congested and hard to run if you weren't near the front. I also heard the Governor and his wife were running. Sorry, but I don't think Miss North Dakota is running this year. The Marathon apparently hit 20000 registrants in the mid afternoon. The Fargo Dome was hopping. One sad note: we ran out of bags and the 10k ran out of T-shirts. I hated having to give people what we had left when they paid to enter. Especially if they ordered small and had to accept large. Our value quotient might go down. Not sure, it could be just a small contingent. Nevertheless, I loved me...
