New LA Marathon Route

Being a native San Franciscan I have never been a real big fan of LA. Although, it is a fun place to visit. Check out the Roosevelt Hotel in Hollywood. Be sure to book a poolside room! I looked into running their marathon a couple of years ago but it seemed like the LA drivers won the battle over the necessary road closures and the route suffered because of it. However, the LA Marathon announced today that they switched things up a bit for their 25th anniversary. The new route looks pretty awesome! I'll definitely be down there to run it in the next couple of years... although all that smog can't be healthy to run through.
