Griffith Park Trail 50k/Marathon/Half Marathon, 4730 Crystal Springs Dr, Los Angeles, CA (2022)

Comments

I was just looking at the revised 2021 course and the Griffith Park 50K is no cakewalk! At nearly 6700 feet of elevation gain it's actually a little more than the Sean O'Brien 50K... and Sean O'Brien is tough.

Mayor Garcetti says he would be open to sporting events in the city if there was a plan to keep people safe. There may be a way to make this happen.

Hi folks! Teen Cancer America is putting teams together for the 2020 LA Marathon, Half Marathon, and 5K on March 7th and 8th! Message or email me at [email protected] if you're interested! 😊🤘You can also visit https://teencanceramerica.org/get-involved/la-marathon/ for more info.

Can anyone tell me about how much the 50k is? I need to make sure that we’re able to budget in the cost before registration opens up on November 1st.

Now more than ever I am asking something of you all. As so many of us have lost jobs, or are at home w/kids trying to keep them busy, or just doing what we can to not loose our minds; here is my challenge. Any positive picture you post, or video you make, or anything you are doing to get through these tough times PLEASE use the hashtag so that those in our community have a place to go on social media to get love, and support. It can be any positive or creative content you want. It can be a video of things you are doing to keep the kids busy, it can be a picture of your new home office, or a simple silly video of a dance party you are having in your living room or on the trails. Let’s start this. Let’s do this. Let’s help each other through these times. If you don’t quite know how hashtags work all you have to do is click on the hashtag, and then click “follow” on it. Then whenever you are on social media you can just click the hashtag to see all related content. It will also show up in your feeds. This will help as we scroll, and all we are seeing is stressful panicked posts. Let’s change the thought path of this. Together we can! Please share this!! Please feel free to also tag me so I can share your posts!
Sincerely,@Keira Henninger
