\"\"<\/p>\n

Your Name:\u00a0<\/strong>Anabel Camacho
\nYour Pace Group:\u00a0<\/strong>8:00
\nHow long have you been a Pasadena Pacer? <\/strong>3 years
\n<\/strong>How did you become a runner, and how did you find the Pasadena Pacers? <\/strong>I’ve always enjoyed running. I ran my first LAM a couple of weeks before my 30th birthday, and I’ve been running on and off ever since. I found the Pacers in 2023 while I was training on my own. I would see them taking up the entire side of the bike path as I tried to make my way around them, lol. I eventually looked them up, and the rest is history!
\nDescribe your pace-leading personality in three words:<\/strong> Steady, chill, and fun.
\nEvery runner has one: What is your weirdest running habit, superstition, or non-negotiable? <\/strong>I don’t drink coffee before a run.
\nYou’re at Mile 20 of the LA Marathon and things are getting ugly. What are you telling your runners?<\/strong> You’ve trained for this moment, and you are stronger than you feel right now! Just take it one step at a time. Trust your training, trust yourself, and keep moving forward. You’ve got this! Si se puede!
\nChoose your fighter: Hills, heat, rain, or 20 miles of flat pavement?<\/strong> Rain
\nWhat’s playing in your head during a long run? <\/strong>Nothing is playing in my head, just random thoughts and me telling myself: “You’ve got this. Si se puede. Finish strong.”
\nThe aid station has magically stocked whatever you want. What are you grabbing?\u00a0<\/strong>A peanut butter and jelly sandwich and water.
\nWhat’s your favorite post-long run reward?<\/strong> Long run = earned coffee, a cinnamon roll, and a delicious breakfast.
\nFinish this sentence: “If you run with my pace group this season, I promise…”\u00a0<\/strong>Tequila shots!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Your Name:\u00a0<\/strong>Simeon Waldron
\nYour Pace Group: <\/strong>8:00
\nHow long have you been a Pasadena Pacer?\u00a0<\/strong>5 years
\n<\/strong>How did you become a runner, and how did you find the Pasadena Pacers? <\/strong>I started running in London straight after college many, many years ago to get fit. At the time I could not even run down the road to the local shop from enjoying college too much \ud83d\ude42 I found the Pacers after COVID to scratch the itch of running with a club again after running on my own for too long.
\nDescribe your pace-leading personality in three words:<\/strong> Chilled, supportive, and open
\nEvery runner has one: What is your weirdest running habit, superstition, or non-negotiable? <\/strong>Always need my Garmin and it needs to hit Strava!
\nYou’re at Mile 20 of the LA Marathon and things are getting ugly. What are you telling your runners?<\/strong> Just keep putting one foot in front of the other.
\nChoose your fighter: Hills, heat, rain, or 20 miles of flat pavement?<\/strong> Rain
\nWhat’s playing in your head during a long run? <\/strong>Anything Oasis, and if my EarPods, a high energy playlist or soccer podcast.
\n<\/strong>The aid station has magically stocked whatever you want. What are you grabbing?\u00a0<\/strong>A Maurten gel, or if at the end of the race, a beer.
\nWhat’s your favorite post-long run reward?<\/strong> Recently, it has become a glass of chocolate milk.
\nFinish this sentence: “If you run with my pace group this season, I promise…” <\/strong>You will be running with a great group of people and make new friends whilst getting closer to fulfilling your race goals!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"

\nSetting a goal and sharing it with everyone you know is the number one way to keep yourself accountable. It invites your friends and family to continuously ask you how that goal is going and they may even ask you if there is anything they can do to help. Some may even join you in that goal!Setting a goal of running a marathon is one that can change your life for the better. Training for a marathon<\/a> can help you reach a new level of fitness that you never thought was possible. The commitment needed to train for a marathon will transfer over to your other daily activities and make you a more responsible individual. The adversity you will face will make you stronger and the friends you will make will last a lifetime. And the best part…you also get a medal!<\/p>\n

Training for a marathon is tough. Running the marathon is also tough. Having a support team makes it easier, not easy, to conquer the task of completing a marathon. The Pasadena Pacers will be there for you to support your goal of completing your first marathon, running a personal best, or qualifying for Boston. We will help you get over the adversity that you may face and get you to that finish one. There is no better feeling than the one you will get when you cross that marathon finish line.<\/p>\n

Training for the 2027 LA Marathon<\/a> begins Saturday, September 12, 2026 at Garfield Park. Our Speed Training Program for the 2027 Los Angeles Marathon<\/a> begins on Wednesday, November 11, 2026 at the Rose Bowl Aquatic Center.

Looking for a ride to the start line of the March 8, 2026 Los Angeles Marathon? We’ve got you covered!<\/p>\n

There will be a shuttle from just south of the Del Mar Station to Dodgers Stadium on the morning of the LA Marathon on March 8, 2026. \u00a0If you\u2019d like to take advantage of this shuttle, you must:<\/p>\n

Please pay in advance to reserve your spot on the shuttle. \u00a0Each Shuttle Bus participant must register separately.<\/p>\n

Pricing: $25 per person.\u00a0 (The Bus is SOLD OUT)<\/p>\n

After paying for the shuttle, you will receive a waiver to complete.<\/p>\n

First come, first serve — when our shuttle fills up, the shuttle signup will be closed. Depending on the date that the shuttle is full, there may be a “waiting list.”<\/p>\n

The shuttle will depart precisely at 4:45 AM from the corner of South Raymond Ave and East Del Mar (next to the Congregation Ale House), so don\u2019t be late!\u00a0 Garage parking is available down the street at the Del Mar Train Station.<\/p>\n

*Please note: This is a one-way bus ride from the Pasadena Del Mar train station to the start of the LA Marathon. \u00a0You will be responsible for your transportation back to Pasadena.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
