LA Marathon 2014 (slide show)

Nearly 24,000 athletes from around the world took over the streets of LA this weekend to run in the 29th annual Asics LA Marathon. Starting at Dodger Stadium and ending in Santa Monica, runners wove their way through many of LA's diverse neighborhoods, striving for medals and personal bests. Walking in Los Angeles may be novel, but these dedicated competitors proved that sometimes the best way to see a city is on your feet. We posted up on the Walk of Fame in Hollywood to catch the pack leaders and the masses as they passed through some of LA’s most recognizable landmarks.
