This website needs to be updated. The course hasn’t ended in Santa Monica since 2020. It ends at Ave of the Stars as of 2021. You pass the finish line and have to do an out and back for about the last 8 miles total to finish. The last 8 miles are tough, it really messes with my mind to pass the finish line, when I’m struggling and watch other people ready to finish. Much of what it takes to complete a marathon is your mindset and this course makes it nearly impossible to stay in good spirits. Everyone I was next to on the course was saying the same thing, that they aren’t signing up again because of the course.
In addition the markers aren’t placed correctly. It is more than 26.2 miles. I’ve worn a Fitbit, apple watch, and Garmin and they are all pretty consistent at 26.8 miles at the finish. I’ve also driven my car on the route and have come up with the same distance as my watches.
Rant over. Sorry I literally finished the race today, got home and posted.
