Pros:
- easy packet pickup
- scenic course, running through all the neighborhoods in LA was pretty cool
- great crowds and support
- the finish line at right next to the ocean was pretty awesome

Cons:
- the race was HOT AS F***, make it earlier in the year folks!
- make more pace groups
- changing your start corral was a pain in the ass, basically they stopped it 3 months before the race
- should've been better post race festivities
- traffic around the finish was a pain in the ass, make sure to stay near the finish line or else you aren't leaving anytime soon
