The Angeles Crest 100 mile Endurance Race started early Saturday morning in Wrightwood, and came to a glorious end at Loma Alta Park in Altadena on Sunday.
Spectators, support crew, and early finishers wait to cheer on the next runners.
Thomas Kuerton of Los Angeles by way of Germany savors his accomplishment.
Lorraine Gersitz (with pacer Jennifer Johnston, left) comes home to smiles and hugs. Gersitz (with friend Marisa Willment, left) ran the whole race in her green Crocs.
UPDATE: Lance Anderson tells us that two Altadena women finished the race -- Marisol Martinez and Diana Treister. Congrats to them both!
