We've worked hard to verify the qualification year for each LA Loyal participant to ensure that everyone who has earned this recognition gets the credit they deserve. However, the process isn't always perfect—especially when participants register with different emails, have someone else sign them up, change their name, or make a typo during registration. We have reviewed every participants historical registration, and now we need your help to make sure, once and for all, we have each person’s year correct.
On the list, linked below, we’ve assigned qualification years up to 19 consecutive years. 20 - 39 will be denoted with 20+, and our amazing Legacy Participants—those who've participated in the marathon for all 40 years—are noted with 40. If on the list and....
