          REGISTRATION FOR THE 2004 GRANDMA’S MARATHON IS CLOSED

Duluth, MN: Registration for the 28th annual Grandma’s Marathon scheduled 
for Saturday, June 19, 2004 is officially closed, and applications are no 
longer being taken. The race was limited to 9,000 participants and 
applications were accepted on a first come first serve basis. 

“We’re proud that Grandma's Marathon continues to be a race that runners 
from all over the world choose, and we’re looking forward to providing them 
with the best experience possible,” says Scott Keenan, executive director 
of Grandma's Marathon. 

Confirmation cards will be sent to registered participants within six 
weeks. The quickest way to verify the acceptance of an entry is to see if 
the check written for the entry fee cleared the bank. Checks for entries 
that were not accepted will be returned to the applicant during the next 
two weeks.

The Garry Bjorklund Half Marathon and the William A. Irvin 5K offer 
additional racing opportunities for runners during Grandma’s Marathon 
weekend. In all, over 16,000 people from across the globe are expected to 
participate in the three races. 

Applications for the Garry Bjorklund Half Marathon will be mailed during 
the fourth week in February to those who have requested one.  Forms for the 
William A. Irvin 5K will be available in late-March. Those interested in 
receiving an entry form for either race should send a note of request and a 
self-addressed, stamped, #10 business size envelope to Grandma’s Marathon – 
P.O. Box 16234 – Duluth, MN 55816.
