Description

It was our first time to Alaska! This is a recap of running a marathon in state #36 for me but so much more in the "final frontier."


Check out this solo episode with travel ideas for when you and your family go to the 49th state, but also plenty of stories about adventures with my son: flightseeing over the massive 6 million acre Denali National Park and landing/walking on a snowy glacier...running the race amidst mountains in the Alaska capital of Juneau (and where this one ranks out of 40 marathons so far)...going on several hikes, more than a dozen miles and thousand of feet of elevation, plus God's beauty what we saw at the top each time...rare sightings of Denali summit...seeing Alaskan sled dogs in action, with stories from a 4-time Iditarod champ...feeing reindeer and highland cattle at a farm...why Hatcher Pass was our favorite in hiking boots...how to get around Alaska...rafting down the river next to a big glacier in Juneau...and the different food we ate during our exciting trip (naming names of restaurants).
