FARGO, N.D. (AP) Thousands of runners are taking to the streets of Fargo, for what might be a record Fargo Marathon.
The men's field for the 26.2-mile race Saturday includes at least three Kenyans one who posted a 2-hour, 12-minute time in 1999. The Fargo Marathon men's record is 2:30:34. The women's field includes a Canadian who posted a 2-hour, 40-minute time last year. The Fargo Marathon women's record is 2 hours, 50 minutes. Marathon executive director Mark Knutson says this year's field is the largest and best, in terms of elite runners.
This year's route was changed because of Red River flooding. The course for the last four years has meandered near the Red River in Fargo and neighboring Moorhead, Minn. This year the route will be reduced to a 13.1-mile two-loop course.
