Los Angeles Marathon, Mile 3

The 23rd Annual City of Los Angeles Marathon was a sight to behold. I was up earlier than I wanted to be on Sunday, March 2 to catch the first runners pass the three-mile marker at Hollywood and Highland. Normally prone to traffic congestion and wacko celebrity and character impersonators, the intersection was barricaded to keep onlookers from getting too close to the elite runners-- finely-tuned exhibits of human anatomy and outright lunacy and determination-- who were about to come careening round the bend.
