Fargo is already the largest city in North Dakota and this weekend it gets a whole lot bigger! More than 20,000 runners bigger to be precise. May 21 is the Fargo Marathon – named as one of the nation’s best by Runner’s World. This event has grown from 2,400 to 20,000+ runners in just five years.
If you’re visiting – this weekend or in the future – and need assistance with lodging, attractions or more contact the CVB. These travel professionals in Fargo (and at CVBs, Chambers and Visitor Centers throughout the state) have hospitality as their middle name!
While in Fargo, you can even get your picture taken with the Woodchipper from the Coen Brothers movie Fargo. The real one will be at the Fargodome this weekend during race events, but a look-alike is at the Fargo-Moorhead CVB all the time!
Can’t make it to Fargo this weekend? Don’t worry. We have more opportunities to run North Dakota coming up! Get out there and enjoy!
