Marathon Weekend


It is that time of year again when our lovely city is taken over by the Long Beach Marathon. I remember the first year that I discovered this event. Not being quite the running type I was out with friends and we were heading to brunch... My idea of a peaceful Sunday afternoon. After heading down Broadway it seemed like a normal weekend... but; let's just say that came to a screeching halt.


Two hours later we were able to park and find a place to eat. So on Marathon weekend... I am out of here and being a long weekend for some people it is a good excuse to get away.

If you are looking for something to do here is an idea: Check out the Butterfly exhibit at The Living Desert in Palm Desert. What is the living desert? One of my favorite places so follow the link and check it out. The Living Desert

One of the things I always tell people new to Long Beach is there is so much to do here. We are so close to some many attractions I can always find something to do.
