2016 LA Marathon Expo Recap

My boyfriend and I really know how to celebrate an anniversary-going to a Race Expo! I didn't get down to the Expo until 5:45 and Ralph barely made it at 6:58! Any ways, I got there and it wasn't crowded-this going to the Expo right before they close may be a good thing from now on! 

I got my bib, shirt and went straight to official merchandise and tried on the new GoRunRide5 limited edition LAM ones and they were awesome so I bought a pair for 75 bucks!

I then went around the Expo and bought some nuun-4 tubs so I can't run out before I make it to another expo with them. I then ran into a friend from grad school who I haven't seen since last LAM and she let me know that big 5 was doing KT TAPE with almost no line-score! 

I went to the Big 5 booth and waited 5 min before I got taped-my left shin-and was off. I eventually found the Clif booth and bought some more fuel as I was running low on margarita shot bloks. 

Right next to it was Ucan so I bought 8 packets to try, their new hydration drink which is delicious and also got a shaker bottle-score!

I then went around the aisles and eventually found the SparklySoul booth and put a headband. I even got a free sample from Arctic Zero gelato. 

The Skechers booth was doing free pics so I waited for that and also got a few water bottle and sunglasses. 

After that I got my wristband for beer just incase I wanted it after the race and helped Ralph pick up his bib.

It was then 7 and the expo was closed. We took the long walk back to the car and got fee Sprinkles cupcakes to celebrate our anniversary and then went to Five Guys for burgers and fries. I'm not a big go out for a fancy dinner for anniversaries and our first unofficial date was to Burger King (which they tore down!) so it made sense for us to keep it casual. We were then so awesome we went home and fell asleep by 10:15 haha. #rockstars 


Overall,I liked the expo. I thought it was much better than past ones and had a lot of vendors. I'm glad I went late as it was not crowded at all! 


What was the last race expo you went to?
