L.A. Marathon Time Lapse

This isn’t knitting-related, but I thought I’d share the video I took this morning from my balcony:

This is a time-lapse video of the 2013 L.A. Marathon runners. The marathon runs right below my apartment every year, so I like waking up and cheering them on. It’s so inspiring!

Details (copied from YouTube ’cause I’m being lazy):
Time lapse of the beginning of the 2013 Los Angeles Marathon, March 17th, 2013. Taken from a hill in Angeleno Heights, looking over Elysian Park Avenue, just before the 1 mile mark.

This time lapse is 932 frames taken over 62 minutes (from 7:29 to 8:32 am), and should show every single runner in the race, except the wheelchair racers and the elite women (sorry, I didn’t get it set up in time for those!). The first group you see is the elite men, followed by 24,000 runners.

Are any knitters also marathon runners? Tell me your story in the comments!
