With the sold-out L.A. Marathon–that’s 25,000 people–on its new, yet popular, Stadium to Sea route, street closures will be aplenty this Sunday. The race moves mainly through Los Angeles, but it will also affect streets in West Hollywood, Beverly Hills and Santa Monica.
Downtowners interested in checking out the race no longer get to roll out of bed just in time for the finish, but the scenes of runners and wheelchair racers are worth getting up early.
“I’ve had more than one elected official tell me that he hasn’t seen the greater Los Angeles region cooperate like this on anything since the 1984 Olympics,” added Marathon President Russ Pillar.
The LA Marathon 2010 starts early today, Sunday, March 21. See the list of LA Marathon street closures as provided by CBS.
