However, the crowds of runners in that race are INSANE. Remind me never to do a huge race.

We live in Seal Beach. My wife did this LA Marathon, and was STUCK on the 110 with 5 other shuttle buses in traffic. She started about 40 minutes late!! Thanks G*d for chip times. Just amazing watching runners exit their cars on an LA freeway to run 2 miles uphill to the START of the marathon! Only in LA...<br />Hey, what equipment did you use to record video and take pics. The quality seems very good!

You've been training hard, diligently and positively and that's what running is about. I actually felt so emotional crossing the finish line with you. I also leaned over and told BS that we should do LA next year, it looks like fun...kind of like San Diego RnR. Way to HTFU and finish, you're the best.

That is one of the things I regret not doing. <br /><br />I am already looking forward to my next race. I was thinking of doing the Laguna Hills half or the Cinco de Mayo half or both and get that cool third medal. Maybe that will be too much before SD Rock and Roll. I'll see how I feel these next couple of weeks. Are you doing any other ones before SD?Madisonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01410886286757858925noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9031751345462244954.post-66814597300821484882010-03-24T09:08:54.849-07:002010-03-24T09:08:54.849-07:00You totally make me want to run LA!
