History

In the early 1980’s Scott Keenan, executive director of Grandma's Marathon, started and directed the Minnesota Mile in Duluth, Minnesota. At the time, it was the second mile road race to be hosted in the United States behind the Fifth Avenue Mile directed by legendary race director, Fred Lebow. After a seven year run, the Minnesota Mile was discontinued.

In the summer of 2006, Keenan approached the staff and board of directors of Grandma's Marathon with the idea of reviving the Minnesota Mile and making it into a two race series – one in Duluth and one in St. Paul. The idea was unanimously supported.

Grandma's Marathon has partnered with Chris Fuller, president of The Sporting Life in Minneapolis, and will work hand-in-hand with him to organize the St. Paul edition of the series. Our goal is to make the Grandma's Minnesota Mile races into two of the premier mile road-races in the United States.
