									Do you know any runners? Are you a

									and ask them to join  
									Team Reading to Kids in the 2020 Los 
									Angeles Marathon on Sunday, 
									March 8th!
									  
                                  
                                  
                           
                	
 
						   We're looking for six more full marathon runners and six Charity Challenge runners (the last 13 miles of the course) to join us in one of the best marathons in the country.  
					  
                	  
 
						   If either of those distances is too daunting, you can join us in the Big 5K (that's just 3.1 miles) near Dodger Stadium the day before the marathon on Saturday, March 7, 2020.
