Press Release - City of Los Angeles Marathon - 7/24/20

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

  2021 Los Angeles Marathon presented by ASICS Announces New Finish Line

               Course Change Brings the Marathon's Finish to 
                     Century City's Avenue of the Stars

July 24, 2020, LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA - The McCourt Foundation is proud to 
announce that the finish line for the Los Angeles Marathon presented by 
ASICS has moved to the Avenue of the Stars in Century City. The McCourt 
Foundation produces the Los Angeles Marathon in conjunction with the City 
of Los Angeles.   
 
This change locates the finish line among the City's best-known landmarks 
and within easy access of hotels, transportation and the entertainment 
areas of Westwood, Beverly Hills, West Hollywood, and the westside.   
 
The new race course, dubbed "Stadium to the Stars", will track the 2020 
race course from its traditional start at Dodger Stadium into Brentwood 
where it will double back on San Vicente, Sepulveda and Santa Monica Blvd. 
to Avenue of the Stars.   
 
"We've been thinking about the next evolution of the Marathon for a few 
years," said Murphy Reinschreiber, Chief Operating Officer of The McCourt 
Foundation. "Finishing on Avenue of the Stars allows for a more vibrant and 
exciting finish experience than previously possible. We expect the closing 
miles and finish line to be the highlight of the must-do, world-class 
experience that is the Los Angeles Marathon" 
 
Race day won't end at the finish line as the Avenue of the Stars location 
allows many options for post-race activities including a larger Finish 
Festival, concerts, sponsor activations, club and group gatherings, and VIP 
entertainment that were limited in the event's previous footprint. 
Additional information will follow in the coming weeks.
