  1. Honda Los Angeles Marathon XXV SRLA Info

  2. News Flash SRLA will NOT have a booth at the Expo that will be held at Dodger Stadium, 1000 Elysian Park Ave, Los Angeles, CA 90012 We will not be there. Truly, we won’t be at the Expo! You will pick up bibs at our Metro site. You can then go up the road to the Expo if you wish.

  3. Leaders Pick UP Bibs • Metropolitan Site (Where the shoes are) 727 S. Wilson, Los Angeles, 90021 • Thursday, March 18th, 1:00 to 6:00 pm • Friday, March 19th, 10:00 to 7:00 pm • Saturday, March 20th, 9:00 to 1:00 pm • No uniform pick up on Saturday. Contact Eric Spears with any issues: 213-219-8977

  4. Why go to the Expo? • It’s where you and your students get the Marathon T-shirt and goodie bag! • It’s fun and the parking is FREE! • EXPO HOURS: • Friday, March 19: 11:00 am – 8:00 pm • Saturday, March 20: 9:00 am – 6:00 pm

  5. How to get T-shirts and Goodie Bag at the Expo • Students take violet index card with the label showing their bib number to the t-shirt area and receive t-shirt and goodie bag. It’s that easy. They pass by or through the bib area to the t-shirt area. • Our area is usually the last station along the line. • Without the card, they are SOL since Eric won’t be at the Expo to fix it!

  7. Race Morning Alert…Race Morning Alert! ARRIVE EARLY, ARRIVE EARLY, ARRIVE EARLY!!! Let’s face it folks, this is Los Angeles, so even though it is a weekend and you will be leaving your house or hotel before the crack of dawn, you have to factor in traffic, congestion and crowded parking lots. We strongly advise all participants to arrive at the Stadium a minimum of 60 minutes before the race and 90 minutes is even better! Shuttle Information Many, if not most of us, will be driving to the race. This year we have a point-to-point course so to help you get to the starting line, we have a shuttle reservation system in place. Simply reserve your space on one of our pre-race shuttles before 3/12 (www.lamarathon.com/runner-info/parking), park your car in Santa Monica and we’ll transport you to the start line at Dodger Stadium. The shuttle pick up location is on Main Street between Olympic Dr. and Pico Blvd. in Santa Monica (1700 Main Street, Santa Monica). This is right in front of City Hall and only a few steps from the Santa Monica Civic Auditorium. When possible, we strongly recommend that drivers should think about carpooling. The Honda LA Marathon has set up its own carpooling system with PickupPal at www.pickuppal.com/pup/welcome/LA-Marathon. The shuttles start at 3am. Parking Once off the freeway, what next? Well, the City of Santa Monica has secured various parking lots with a total of approximately 8,000 spots. The lots will open at 2am and the City is charging $17 for race day parking. Honda LA Marathon staff will post directional signage and will be directing marathon participants to the parking lots from the freeways. Pre-paid parking can be booked online through the website, www.thepermitstore.com/sm/event. Runners can also be dropped off at Dodger Stadium on race day. However, Participants will not be allowed to leave their cars at Dodger Stadium. Vehicle access to the stadium will be for participant drop off only. Cars entering the Stadium are required to stay through the start of the Marathon, and must exit afterwards. Depending on which gate you enter, you will be directed to park in a specific parking lot and specific parking space. Please note that only the Downtown (1252 Stadium Way) and Golden State (938 Academy Rd) Gates will be open on race day. The Sunset Gate will NOT be open due to road closures for the marathon. Sunset Blvd from Hollywood Blvd. to Main Street will also be closed starting at 3am on March 21 as it is part of the marathon route. See Appendix B for Dodger Stadium Map.
