Grandma’s Marathon Activities Since their inaugural race in 1977, Grandma’s Marathon has grown into something much bigger than just a 26.2-mile race along the scenic North Shore of Minnesota. It’s now become a “can’t-miss” weekend in June, a moment when participants of all calibers come together to celebrate the vigor of the human spirit. It’s a day the word “impossible” ceases to exist, a day 9,000 people become your best running buddy. So get ready to once again tie up your laces for another year of memories, miles, and human might.
