The Positive and Negative of Los Angeles Marathon
- Share via
I’ve had it with people complaining about the short-lived inconveniences caused by the marathon-related traffic jams. The long-term benefits of the marathon to L.A. far outweigh such inconvenience. Besides, the event was well publicized, including street closures, and afforded all an opportunity to plan to travel using alternate routes.
To the gentleman who suggested rerouting the marathon to Catalina, why doesn’t he go there next year at marathon time--on a one-way ticket.
