The Ely Marathon is set for Saturday, and all indications are it will be one of the biggest in its history.
More than 1,000 participants are expected for the event, which started with Friday night’s 5K Northern Lights Glow Run and leads into Saturday’s extravaganza with the full 26.2-mile marathon, the Highland Bank Half Marathon and Ely’s own unique canoe portage division in both events.
Organizers were busy this week and bracing for an extremely busy weekend.
