New marathons are cropping up all over Minnesota these days. The inaugural Stillwater Marathon was held last weekend and this Sunday the spotlight is on the Minneapolis Marathon.In the spirit of competition, we would like to find out which marathon you think will be faster with the question:
Yes/No: Will the combined times of the winning male and female runners at the Minneapolis Marathon be faster than those of the winning male and female at the Stillwater Marathon last weekend?
Note: The Stillwater Marathon was won by Pete Hoyem in 2:50:32 and Jessica Mike in 3:09:06 (combined total: 5:59:38). The Minneapolis Marathon will be held Sunday at 8:00 A.M. and the course will be a tour of the River Road in Minneapolis and Saint Paul.
DtB's Chris Lundstrom wrote a profile of each marathon earlier this year: Stillwater and Minneapolis
To play our game, simply type "yes" or "no" into the subject line of an e-mail and send it to us at DtBFantasy [AT] gmail [DOT] com before 7:00 a.m. CDT , Sunday, May 31st. Please put your answer in the subject line of the e-mail and make sure your full name appears somewhere in the e-mail. We will continue to offer a bonus for participants making their debut in Yes/No - a correct answer will be worth two points for any first-time players.
My Answer: Yes
Last week’s question was “Will Kristi Buerkle finish in the top 8 in the 400 meters at D2 Nationals?” Buerkle came through with a PR 54.83 in the prelims and finished 4th in the final to garner a "Yes" in the results. The sophomore at Bemidji State was an All-American Indoors and Outdoors in 2009. 8 contestants answered the question correctly.
You can find the Y/N leaderboard HERE.
Good luck and thanks for playing Yes/No on DtB!
