Kobe, Lamar, and Pau have their favorite mile at the Los Angeles Marathon. Link.

Cathedrals of track. Link. Point Loma gets a nod in the Comments. I have a fond memory of the track at Occidental College in Eagle Rock, and the old track at Huntington Beach High School where I saw Ullis Williams, in the early 60s, break the national high school record in the 440.

Check out the Theodore Payne Foundation Wildflower Hotline. Link. And then proceed to your best option with that special person or your family. No need to waste your day monitoring Kobe and Lamar.

Hope to see you tomorrow at the St. Patrick's 5K in Mentryville.
