MINNESOTA

That's easy.

IT'S COLD.

PU-SSAY!!!! PUSS-AY!!!! PUSS-AY!!!

Better yet is Wisconsin. We sell alcohol EVERY DAY OF THE WEEK unlike Minnesota. losers!

Good for you guys, thats about all you got going for yourselves. That and cheese, especially now that Favre is retired. My only question to you is this: When you guys riot, do you tip over cows and set them on fire? Is that your form of rioting?

Things that have happened to me running in Minnesota:

Fell on ice, split elbow open=5 stitches

Fell on ice, hit head=concussion

Fell on ice, landed on upper back=Bruised ribs (yes, ribs)

you sound kind of retarded.

Things that happened to me running in Minnesota:

Nothing bad.

Wow, I actually pay attention to where I'm running, so that I don't slip on ice.

Stop running on ice then you retard!

Minnesota is great, and Duluth is the crown jewel--if you can handle cold. Which I can't.

Have you been to Minnesota in February/March?

Snow melts during the day and freezes at night. Ice is EVERYWHERE. And I have to do my runs at night.

I live here, why do you think my name is Goldy? As in the Gophers? duh. If ice is that much of a problem, put some sheet metal screws in the soles of your shoes and stop complaining.

One of the greatest places to live in the US for a endurance athlete...

Yes, you are correct, of the greatest places to live in the US for an endurance athlete Minnesota is officially ranked 48th.

You might want to visit the other 49 states and Puerto Rico before you argue about this ranking.

The ice is not THAT bad. If you don't like Minnesota, move. If you don't want to slip on ice, get a gym membership and run on a treadmill until the weather warms up so you wont fall on your fragile elbows. It's really not that complicated. I used to run at night around the lakes and there were some icy parts, but you just have to be cautious. I never fell one time.

We should start an official thread: Minnesota vs. Wisconsin, which one is better

This argument comes up constantly on this message board.

How about this? All the runners in MN against all the runners in WI is a giant duel cross country meet. We could make it an annual event.

Sounds like someone had a bad experience in Wisconsin!

Hmmmm....Minnesota vs Wisconsin.

Pretty close in terms of coolness.

I'd be down for that race.

1 point minnesota

Then again, I doubt you have ever been here, because where I live in Wisconsin, cows are pretty rare. Half of this state is woodedland and forests.
