This year’s Honda LA Marathon promises to be the best yet!

PODS Gear Check:

This year, runners’ gear that is checked at Dodger Stadium in the PODS Gear Check Zone before the start of the race will be monitored by security coordinators and then transported to the finish line in Santa Monica, where it will be retrieved in a secure runner-only area. The PODS Gear Check at Dodger Stadium will close at 6:45am to make sure that all belongings arrive at the finish line on-time.

Dodger Stadium Traffic Flow:

We’ve been working with the Department of Transportation and Caltrans to ensure smooth traffic flow into Dodger Stadium. As part of the improved traffic system, vehicles will be guided efficiently to the dedicated drop-off area and parking zone to help ensure the race starts on-time promptly at 7:24am.

Additional Shuttle Locations:

Even more free shuttle buses to the starting line at Dodger Stadium will also be available this year for runners who reserve a shuttle time at registration. The shuttles will be available from 2:30-5:30am leaving Santa Monica and 5:15-6:15am from Union Station. Official Marathon hotels located in Downtown L.A. and Beverly Hills will also offer free pre and post-race shuttles for runners who booked a stay with them. (wristbands required for hotel shuttles)

Real-Time Traffic and Weather Updates:

To help keep athletes and spectators informed, there will be more live updates and tweets on the AM 570 KLAC/FOX Sports LA broadcast beginning at 5:00am, on the pre-race television broadcast on KTLA from 6:00-7:00am, and during the four-hour KTLA Channel 5 race broadcast from 7:00-11:00am. In addition, the Marathon’s social media channels will be updated throughout the day to provide key race information, as well as traffic and weather updates.
