Saturday's Family Events will kick off the Metronic Twin Cities Marathon in grand fashion with a variety show of races that include the 10k, 5k, Mile, Half-Mile, Toddler Trot and other kids/family events.
Don't tell the kids that the main events are actually the following day, with the TC 10 Mile and Twin Cities Marathon runners and spectators filling up the autumn-tinted streets of Minneapolis and Saint Paul.
While the Twin Cities Marathon always features an elite field, the TC 10 Mile is the competition that will again turn heads this year as host to the USA 10 Mile Championships.

Yes/No: Will the TC 10 Mile course records both be broken (Men 46:35 and Women 53:16)?
The elite field is deep and talented. Some notable names include Mo Trafeh, Ben True, Abdi Abdirahman and Chris Solinsky. The women are led by Janet Bawcom and Kara Goucher.
