This was my first real race post Covid and I loved every minute.
Zumbro has been on my list of races to do and this year it worked out. The weather was great for running, upper 40’s – 50’s with rain at times. The course has a handful of steep climbs and some decent views of the hills and valleys. You cross over the Zumbro river a few times and I stopped to check it out for kayaking, looks good for that.
For me, the day was long and slow as I decided to do it even though I had torn my meniscus the week before. So I was using poles and had to mostly walk. The course is runnable for the most part except for some of the rocky declines and the handful of miles in sand, Loved every minute.

Started in downtown with the 1/2 marathon runners, wave start but not by pace so for the first 12 miles lots of runners. After we split the course was neighborhoods and parks. Very good police support, enjoyed all aspects but it was hot for me and the density of runners kept me off rhythm which triggered my asthma. Loved the blue mile around mile 5. Very inspiring to see the pictures of those who gave their lives along with the vets holding the Flag. Loved the music and the city, great weekend.

Love this race, easy logistics, good volunteer support. They changed the course this year, loved it. Helped that the weather was perfect for running. A nice mix of running through neighborhoods, downtown Mankato, countryside.
It’s low key event and not expensive, they provided this year a nice lightweight jacket, in past years they have had long sleeve tech shirts. Nice medal and a cold beer at the finish.

Early morning start, gorgeous views, the first 10 to 12 miles were flat, then some uphills with even nicer views but it got hot on the hills. One problem I had was running along the side of roads had some awkward cambers that bothered my knee for most folks it would be fine. Good volunteer support. Did appreciate everything about the race. Great emails from the race director to keep you informed. Ok shirt, nice medal. Would love to run it again.

Although it wasn’t quite what I had planned, had a great day at FANS 12 hr at Fort Snelling State Park which I turned into a less than 8 hr endeavor but got in a 50k+. You run a 2+ mile loop around a lake with a combo of dirt trail and asphalt. No hills and the volunteers are always great. 2 aid stations, one at the start and one about 1/2 way. It is a great event to do if you want to enter the world of ultra running. They have a 6, 12 and 24 hr races all running together. Very fun event.
For this year, we did have a few hours in the rain but no t-storms which was a blessing. By shortening my day, it gave my body a break as I was having some foot and knee pain (have Grandmas in 2 weeks so will appreciate the reduced effort, hopefully) and it allowed me to go out to dinner with my wife to celebrate our anniversary.
So for me it was a win-win. Hopefully I can back next year and do the entire 12 hrs, for today though I was just happy to get back to an ultra distance.
