Carrie Tollefson's Favorite Places to Run, Eat, Shop and Unwind in Minnesota

Ask Carrie Tollefson about her favorite places to run over the years and one of the first that springs to mind isn’t a world class track or trail where she trained for the Summer Olympics. It’s the gravel-lined Skunk Hollow loop in Dawson, Minnesota — a peaceful town of just under 1,500 people that’s about three hours west of the Twin Cities.

STREETS & TREATS

Streets & Treats has plenty for the kiddos to enjoy on the spookiest day of the year. There will be Trick-or-Treating and other fun activities. You definitely don't want to let your kids miss out on this awesome event this year.
