Coming up in two weeks is the LA Marathon weekend!!!! Brian from northern CA will be making the trek down here to run! Kimmie will be completing her FIRST marathon!!!! Lena and I will running our second.

There are two races this year, a 5k on Saturday 3/20, and the Marathon on Sunday 3/21. There is also a huge expo on Friday and Saturday with companies giving away freebies. The expo is open to the public and is FREE! I definitely recommend checking it out! We are planning on hitting the expo on Saturday around noon.
Information about the events can be found at:
www.lamarathon.com
The website also includes course and spectator information. If you've never witnessed a marathon in real life, you should definitely check it out. It is amazing to watch.....and you might just "catch the bug".

Our very own Brian from up northern CA will be making the trek down here to run in the marathon on Sunday along with Lena, Kimmie, and myself. We are planning on getting together for a pre-race dinner (we need carbs) on Saturday 3/20 at 5:00 pm at Palermo Ristorante Italiano in Los Feliz (not far from downtown). We would love to have you guys join us and meet Brian and celebrate Kimmie's FIRST marathon!

Freebies? Dinner? Friends?

I'm there!

Now if you are going to win any battle you have to do one thing. You have to make the mind run the body. Never let the body tell the mind what to do. The body will always give up. It is always tired in the morning, noon, and night. But the body is never tired if the mind is not tired."
- George S. Patton, U.S. Army General, 1912 Olympian

Awwwww........post a picture!!!! :-)

I bet you could bring it to the expo (I hear it's outdoors) and of course you can bring it to the race course. You'll have to find a babysitter for the dinner though!
