I ran the 2004 Los Angeles Marathon as my first marathon this past March. I stayed with a friend while I was in LA, and I left behind the freebie marathon poster that they give out with the race packets at the expo. In the intervening weeks, my poster was apparently destroyed.
I'm posting in hopes that someone has a 2004 LA Marathon XIX poster that they don't need or don't want and would be willing to give or sell to me.
I don't think losing this poster would matter so much to me except that this was my first marathon, and it would be really nice to have it. You never forget your first--it's an experience that can't be duplicated no matter how many other marathons one runs or how many faster or more satisfying performances one might have.
So I guess I'm sentimental, and it's making me really hopeful that I can replace this lost piece of paper. So I thought it might be worth a shot posting here and on other running lists that I'm on.
I don't want to get your hopes up, but I might have an extra at home. I'll check tonight.
