Grandma's Marathon runs along the beautiful shores of Lake Superior. The terrain consists of some gently rolling hills, the weather is usually ideal for marathoning and the course is very scenic.

Grandma's Marathon registration closed the morning of December 31 after reaching the registration limit of 8,500 runners.  The last time registration closed due to capacity was in 2008.  This year, the race filled in only three months.
