ST. PAUL - It was a frosty morning for runners who are taking part in the Iron Horse Ultra 100, Saturday. The run includes a 100-km route, and a 100-mile route, with participants making their way along portions of the Iron Horse Trail, but also along roads and other terrain in the area.

This year, runners started the race at Reunion Station at staggered times, with some starting before sunrise on Saturday morning. Racers will complete the trek, which go through Elk Point and then further east, before coming back to St. Paul, ending at the same place they started. 

Please watch out for runners if you happen to be in the area.
