2005 Grand Island Trail Marathon

Pictures from Mary's run in the Grand Island Trail Marathon on July 30, 2005 in Munising, Michigan. This was the inaugural running of this marathon. The run takes place on Grand Island which is in Lake Superior. Mary's "race recap" write up and additional photos of the race can be seen at our Running in the USA website.

She was:

  • 85 out of 156 overall
  • 19 out of 44 women
  • 4 out of 9 (F35-39)
  • time 4:24:48

After the marathon, we spent a few days in Munising for a short vacation. Click here for additional photos from our stay in Munising.
