The Los Angeles Marathon. Another incredible experience. Way too
hot (20° above normal, mid 90's), but we decided to bag the PR and just relax
and enjoy the spectators. There were so many, and most called out our (well,
mostly Hazel's) name(s). A
plus, we stayed at the Bonaventure, a half-block from both start and finish
lines. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.
