Midnight Sun Run

One of the most popular ways in town to celebrate the Summer Solstice is to attend the Midnight Sun Run. This is a 10K race that weaves through the western side of Fairbanks. Some racers wear costumes, and some spectators bring all of their living room furniture out into thier yards to be comfortable while they watch the race go by their houses. Pretty much anything goes.


The lazy group (aka support crew) consisting of Duff, Tim, Mette, and myself rode bikes along the race route, while Carrie and Max competed in the race by running.


Carrie and Max both finished in under an hour. So fast that the three of us on bikes had a hard time keeping up!
