Where is Nisswa, Minnesota? In all honesty I am not sure, I've only been to Minnesota once for a whirlwind business trip to Minneapolis - which, if I may say, is one heck of a cool city! Check it out sometime and don't forget your running shoes. Nothing starts your day better than a cool morning run alongside the Mississippi River! Ok, enough about Minneapolis, today we are talking about Nisswa, located about 145 miles north of Minneapolis. Nisswa is home to the second annual Brainerd Jaycees Run for the Lakes this Friday April 24 and Saturday April 25. Zoomzer won't be at the race - we'll be at Big Sur - but we thought we should offer three reasons why all you Minnesotians or whatever you call yourselves, should check out this cool race!
1 - It is so afforadable!! Any marathon that costs $50 for late resistration is a deal. That alone should be a reason to show up Saturday morning!
2 - You run on the Paul Bunyan Trail - that just sounds rustic and cool. Keep an eye out for Babe the Blue Ox!
3 - It looks to be a flat and fast course. According to the race website total elevation gain is something like 8 meters. There are going to be some PRs this weekend.
After you've raced please stop by Zoomzer and leave us your feedback. We'd really love to hear what you thought of the event! http://zoomzer.com/races/view/1847
