LA Marathon Comes to Beverly Hills

Beverly Hills joined hands with other cities on Nov. 7 to create the 26.2-mile track for the Los Angeles Marathon. An estimated 13,000 athletes set out from Dodger Stadium to chart a course through Silver Lake, Los Feliz, Hollywood, West Hollywood, Beverly Hills, West L.A., ending in Century City. In Beverly Hills, runners were greeted by cheering fans as they ran, jogged, walked, and hobbled down glamorous Rodeo Drive.
