Live streaming of the race broadcast on www.KTLA.com Fast Facts: This is Skechers Performance’s second year as Title Partner of the marathon. Skechers Performance is a global company headquartered locally, in Manhattan Beach. With sponsored athletes including Meb Keflezighi and Kara Goucher, they are on the forefront of running. The race will follow the iconic Stadium to the Sea course that starts at Dodger Stadium and passes through West Hollywood and Beverly Hills before finishing in the City of Santa Monica. The race concludes at the intersection of Ocean and California avenues, just steps from the Pacific Ocean. The course features a host of local landmarks, such as Los Angeles City Hall, Walt Disney Concert Hall, TCL Chinese Theater, the Sunset Strip, Rodeo Drive and a finish near the Santa Monica Pier. A total prize purse of $100,000 in cash will be offered to both the men’s and women’s fields at the Skechers Performance Los Angeles Marathon, with $23,000 for first place, $11,250 for second, $9,000 for third, $4,500 for fourth and $2,250 for fifth in each division. 2017 Skechers Performance Los Angeles Marathon Media Guide The men’s professional field features the last two Los Angeles Marathon champions, the 2015 winner Daniel Limo (KEN) and the returning Weldon Kirui (KEN). The front runners in the women’s field are expected to be Mestawet Tufa (ETH) and Biruktayit Degefa (ETH). 95 official charities are participating in this year’s race. For the sixth year in a row, runners can join together in support of their favorite charity by participating in the Skechers Performance Los Angeles Marathon Two-Person Charity Relay. The relay allows one person to run the first half of the marathon while their partner completes the race. Each relay runner will register and raise money for one of the marathon’s official charities. Entertainment planned for the 26.2-mile course includes 50 bands, 500+ cheerleaders, four entertainment centers and over 50 charity cheer zones. This year, the Skechers Performance Los Angeles Marathon introduced the third edition of its smartphone app. The official race app powered by Fitbit provides users tools like runner tracking, interactive maps and this year added a music player with three unique, curated playlists designed to motivate athletes during training and on race day. Save the date! Next year’s Skechers Performance Los Angeles Marathon will be on March 18, 2018. 2017 Skechers Performance Los Angeles Marathon Media Guide ABOUT THE SKECHERS PERFORMANCE LOS ANGELES MARATHON “Stadium to the Sea.” Say just those four words, and runners across the world will immediately know what you’re referring to: the iconic course of the Skechers Performance Los Angeles Marathon, which is set for its 32st edition on March 19, 2017. Frank McCourt purchased the operating rights to the race in 2008, which continues to be one of the four largest marathons in the U.S. and one of the top 10 worldwide. Soon afterward, he asked his team to devise a course that would show off the very best of Los Angeles. Working with public officials and community stakeholders, the “Stadium to the Sea” course was born. The course begins at Dodger Stadium and continues through downtown LA, across West Hollywood, Beverly Hills, and ending in Santa Monica. At each mile along the way, runners will pass several internationally renowned iconic landmarks, starting at Dodger Stadium and including Chinatown, the El Pueblo de Los Angeles State Historic Park, Los Angeles City Hall, Little Tokyo, the Disney Hall and Music Center of Los Angeles County, four different sites of the Academy Awards in Hollywood, parts of Historic Route 66 in West Hollywood, Rodeo Drive in Beverly Hills, and the famous runner’s mecca of San Vicente Boulevard in Santa Monica before finishing on Ocean Avenue alongside the Pacific Ocean. A field of over 24,000 runners are expected on race day. They’ll run the Stadium to the Sea course behind an elite field of foreign runners coming from as far as Spain, Mexico, and Kenya. Once again, the race offers the opportunity for entrants and their supporters to raise funds for one of the 95 worthy charities affiliated with the Skechers Performance Los Angeles Marathon. An exciting schedule has been prepared for the weekend, featuring the following: The Skechers Performance Los Angeles Marathon Health & Fitness Expo will be held in the West Hall of the Los Angeles Convention Center in Downtown L.A. on Friday, March 17 and Saturday, March 18. More than 120 exhibitors from around the country will be present. The LA BIG 5K, sponsored by Big 5 Sporting Goods, will take place at Dodger Stadium on Saturday, March 18, offering athletes of all ages an opportunity to take part in race week festivities. KTLA 5 will air the race live in Los Angeles beginning at 6:00 am. For the second year, WGN will televise the race live nationally from 7:00 am to 10:00 am PDT. More than 3,200 students will be participating in this year’s Skechers Performance Los Angeles Marathon as a part of Students Run LA (SRLA), an after-school mentoring and physical fitness program for at-risk middle and high school students in Los Angeles. Through the program, students learn how discipline and perseverance lead to success in the marathon and in life. More than 60,000 students have participated in the program since its inception in 1987, with over 95 percent of SRLA starters finishing the race. 2017 Skechers Performance Los Angeles Marathon Media Guide An impressive 163 Legacy Runners—men and women who have completed all 31 prior editions of the race— will step to the line in 2017. This year, Gerard Deegan led the LA Road Runners, the official training program of the Skechers Performance Los Angeles Marathon.

    DAILY NATION - Galaxy of stars light up Kibera Page 1 of 1 MONDAY December 15, 2008 FOOTBALL Galaxy of stars light up Kibera Shoe4Africa All Stars team’s Robert Cheriyot dribbles past Carolina for Kibera defender Mercy Akinyi as teammate Martin Lel (left) closes in during their celebrity football match, on Saturday. By CHRIS MUSUMBAPosted Saturday, December 13 2008 at 18:42 IN SUMMARY Multiple champions join celebrated ER actor in Shoe4Africa charity game in slum An embarassment of talent was on show at the Kibera Primary School on Saturday with a galaxy of the world’s top marathon stars on parade on a sports-for- peace mission. Interestingly, the multiple champions were not lining up for yet another marathon, but tried their hands, or legs if you like, in a charity football match against a Kibera women’s football team under the Shoe4Africa charity initiative. Former world marathon champion Paul Tergat, two-times London Marathon champion Martin Lel, four-times Boston Marathon winner Robert “Mwafrika” Cheruiyot, former Boston Marathon runner-up Christopher Cheboiboch and 1992 Olympic steeplechase gold medallist Mathew Birir were in the team that won the match 3-1. Also fielded was 1987 world marathon champion Douglas Wakiihuri, American television drama series, ER, actor Anthony Edwards, aka Dr Mark Greene and Shoe4Africa founder Toby Tanser. The match followed a five-kilometre women’s run which saw over 3,000 runners get free T-shirts and running shoes from Shoe4Africa who are on a fund raising mission to raise money to build a Sh1 billion children’s hospital in Eldoret.
