LA Marathon - March 20, 2011

I LOVE LA!!! Last year I did 106 marathons and out of 106, 9 or 10 were in the rain but this storm had to be the worst. I always find the positive and manage to finish. I finished 6:39:47.
It wouldn't be LA without a celebrity or two running the marathon. I was in the green room with Chris O'Donnell and Josh Cox! Wow!!!










Maniac Lisa was in the green room too. At the start there was excitement in the air!!!












19,626 finishers!!!!
















It may had been raining but we still know how to have fun! Who said you can't have fun in the rain??? (okay storm, monsoon)





















It's Hollywood baby!!!




















and the TV man!























Take a stroll down Rodeo Drive...























What kept me going? You know...the finishers medal!!!! I love LA!
























I had a press conference with some amazing people:

Kelly Gneiting, 400 pound sumo wrestler champion finishes the LA marathon 9:48:52 and may have set a Guinness World record!

Marie-Louise Stenild ran 7 marathons, 7 days, 7 continents!

Joe "McRunner" D'Amico ate McDonalds for 30 days and breaks his marathon time 2:36:13!

Yolanda "Walking Diva" Holder broke the Guinness World record for the "Most Marathon Run in a Calendar Year" 2010 (106 marathons)...oh..that's me!!!

























Dave Mari "Marathon Maniac celebrity" from Chicago and Joe "The Marathon Show" were at the expo and I was a guest speaker too.


















































I had a blast filming "Take a Stroll with the Walking Diva"
