It was a great day, spirits were up, weather was great and Jodi continues to inspire us all! I think Sara Anderson (Mile 6) worded it perfect – we are on a Marathon high!

Wow, what more could be said about the success of our 2014 LA Marathon team.  On behalf of the Board of Directors of the ALS Association Orange County Chapter, THANK YOU! Together we celebrated Jodi and the hard work of her fellow athletes (BALS):  Paul, Tom, Ryan and Michael. 

We pushed Jodi over the finish line in 5:48.20, and have raised more than $134,000 that will go directly to fund research for a cure. 

A message from Jodi-

Thank you to all of the rollers that pushed me from the Stadium to the Sea yesterday.  Hope and Awareness of ALS were brought to the streets of LA, and it could not have been done without all of you helping.  Myself and all those who are afflicted with this disease appreciate the support.  May we be one step closer to finding a cure!
