The History of the L.A. Marathon
The Los Angeles Marathon, first held in 1986, was inspired by the success of the 1984 Summer Olympic Games hosted in Los Angeles. Since its inception, the marathon has grown into one of the largest and most iconic marathons in the United States, attracting over 20,000 participants annually.
In its early years, the marathon was known as the City of Los Angeles Marathon. The event has seen various changes and milestones over the decades.
Since 2008, the operating rights to the Los Angeles Marathon have been owned by former Los Angeles Dodgers owner Frank McCourt.
Hosted by The McCourt Foundation, the marathon supports efforts to cure neurological diseases and “empower communities to build a healthier world.”
