I do like this year's course:

From Dodger Stadium, through Downtown L A, to Echo Park and Silverlake through Hollywood, Westwood and Beverly Hills, and then on to the shores of the Pacific Ocean in Santa Monica.
However, I think us folks on the Real Eastside need our own marathon ... Highland Park Avenues, Boyle Heights, East L A, City Terrace ...... I'm gonna think up a Real Eastside Marathon Route and post a map.
(NO, I am not a Marathon runner, but I do like to watch it on TV!)

I am not a runner either but I have a tremendous amount of respect for those who train for and participate in these events.
2 more posts to the big 1000. Make it special CJ.
You know, the weird thing is my Home dasboard says I passed 1,000 a while back....
LOL that is bizarre. maybe it has to do with points not allowed or deleted posts that still show up on your dashboard. Definitely a glitch somewhere
The thing is, I have never deleted any posts..... That would go against my ingrained hoarder tendancies. :-) Maybe, it's not counting the no-points posts....
