Grandma’s Marathon 2025 Double: Thunderbolts and Lightning - Perfect Duluth Day

Grandma’s Marathon 2025 Double: Thunderbolts and Lightning

Eric Strand has been running what he calls the “Grandma’s Marathon Double” since 2012. Along with a handful of other runners, he starts at the marathon finish line, runs to the starting line, then turns around and runs the regular marathon. He releases videos of the runs each year, usually shortly before the next year’s run.

Other than the pandemic year of 2020, Strand has run the double every year since 2012. But in 2026 he’s running just the regular marathon.

“I got my ticket punched to the Western States 100 the following weekend,” he writes. “Carry on without me, I’ll be back for the double in 2027.
