Unlike other runners, she enjoys the humid weather, the uphills as well as the downhills.
I was amazed at how she glides along the route. I first saw Mommy Linda in a 21K race last year. In December, she will be running 50K at the Paa-Tibayan Endurance Run. She did her first half-marathon at the 2013 Run United Philippine Marathon while her first full marathon was at this year’s The Bull Runner Dream Marathon. She has run three marathons and numerous 21Ks. She is 68 years old, mother of four, and lives in Parañaque City. Runners call her Lola Linda or Mommy Linda. Unlike the phone game app with a granny that runs angry, this granny runs with a smile. It’s a time that our city and community throws open its doors to welcome participants from all over the world and introduce them to our race and way of life in northern Minnesota.Rosalinda Ogsimer is living proof that it’s never too late to reach for your dreams By Redg Candido | Photos courtesy of Rosalinda Ogsimer In what’s become the largest community event of each calendar year, Grandma’s Marathon weekend has now become the unofficial kickoff to summer in Duluth and the surrounding region.
The racecourse, in a wonderful combination of serenity and excitement, runs alongside the quiet and scenic shores of Lake Superior before entering the city limits of Duluth where runners are welcomed and pushed to the finish line by a boisterous and enthusiastic throng of spectators. Widely regarded as a world class event with small town charm, our race now welcomes more than 20,000 participants each June and brings with it close to $21M of economic impact to the region. Started by a local group of runners in 1977, Grandma’s Marathon has grown from just 150 participants its first year to now one of the largest and best-known marathons in the United States.
