Volunteers and "Runtourage" members help get Twin Cities Marathoners across the finish line
The support for all runners in the Twin Cities Marathon could be felt along every inch of the 26.2-mile course from Minneapolis to St. Paul.
Marielle Mohs is thrilled to be telling stories in her home state of Minnesota. She grew up in Eden Prairie and South Minneapolis.
Since starting as a reporter at WCCO in 2019, a lot has happened, including covering and working throughout a global pandemic. She was also on the ground for the protests and riots following the murder of George Floyd. She was part of the WCCO award-winning documentary "6 Days in May" about the uprising in the Twin Cities following the murder of George Floyd. She was also nominated for an Upper Midwest Emmy.
Before coming back home, Marielle was a reporter in St. Louis, Missouri at KMOV. She was nominated for a Midwest Emmy in 2018 and won a Missouri Broadcasters Award in 2019. While in St. Louis, she got to cover the 100th PGA Championship and the St. Louis Blues winning the Stanley Cup in 2019, both were career highlights!
Marielle began her career after college in Little Rock, Arkansas at KTHV. She started as a producer and quickly transitioned to a reporter, then investigative reporter and then weekend evening anchor.
But Marielle's humble beginnings are some of her favorite jobs to date, which include scooping ice cream at Sebastian Joe's in high school and serving buckets of fries at the Fresh French Fries stand at the Minnesota State Fair during her summer breaks in college.
Marielle loves skiing, both water and snow. She went to college at the University of Denver, so she could ski every weekend in the winter.
She also enjoys taking improv classes in her free time, and attending shows at improv theaters around the Twin Cities.
Most people call Marielle "Elle," so you may hear that while watching WCCO.
