A nice day for a run


We had some terrible rainstorms today that flooded streets all across the city. It would've been a great day to stay home and watch movies and drink hot cocoa.

But almost 20,000 people woke up early, braved the storms and ran 26.2 miles from Dodger Stadium to Santa Monica. Those poor marathoners! We walked only 5 blocks to watch the Elite finishers - I was freezing and soaked to the bone. In this photo, you can see the winner of the Male division, Markos Geneti, about 30 yards from the finish line. His official time was 2:06:35.

Congrats to all!
