Congratulations Paul!

The 2007 commemorative Fargo Marathon Poster is a beautiful creation! The poster depicts a rush of runners at the starting line of the Fargo Marathon. The runners’ shapes eventually blend into the wings of an eagle which oversees them. The inspiration for the image came to artist Paul Johnson during a recent run in which he just felt like he could run forever. “Those runs don’t happen very often, but when they do, it is a great feeling…almost like you are flying,” said Johnson. Johnson felt that the eagle is also symbolic of the spirit of our country. Serendipity came into play when he later found out (after the poster was done) that the Fargo Marathon falls on Armed Forces Day (May 19th). The poster will be available for purchase on the website on February 1st.
