At Mile 11, on the famed Hollywood Boulevard, the marathon route will be transformed into a red carpet experience for runners.
In a nod to the 98th Oscars on Sunday, March 15, Mile 11 will be designed to mimic the esteemed event, offering participants the opportunity to experience the red carpet and snap a photo as they run past the Dolby® Theatre at Ovation Hollywood, the home of the Oscars.
