Last weekend, GuerilLA held an impromptu Finish Line on The Strand in Manhattan Beach, CA.
The race was complete with a Finish Line sign, finish line tape, water tables, supportive signs, journalists, photographers, videographers, and a large cheering group of people spread along a quarter mile of The Strand. Runners and cyclists had no idea that they were actually near the end of a marathon, until the last second!
Man I wish I could have been there. That looks so cool, and the “racers” seemed to enjoy it very much.
Awesome. I actually teared up a little (and I’m a cold ass cynic most of the time). What a great way to make total strangers feel like “winners”.
Great job! Keep ’em coming, GuerilLA!

I agree with Maughta. This was nice, and I usually hate nice.
