LA Marathon Volunteers Needed! 

‍♀️ Hydrate the Runners ‍♂️

Great Outdoors is organizing a crew for the LA Marathon! Being at a water station is one of the most high-energy ways to experience the race.

We are looking for volunteers to join our Water Station Crew for this year’s Los Angeles Marathon!

This is your chance to support thousands of runners as they conquer 26.2 miles. You’ll be the fuel that keeps them moving toward the finish line!

What You’ll Be Doing:

• The Prep: Filling cups (with lightning speed!) to keep the tables stocked.

• The Hand-off: Perfecting the "reach and release"—extending your arm with a cup for runners to grab as they fly by.

• The Hype: Cheering, clapping, and providing that extra boost of motivation when they need it most.

Event Details:

• When: March 8, 2026

• Time: 5:00 AM – 11:30 PM Yes, 5:00 AM,  The wheelchairs are the first to bolt, next the elite runners, then all runners. Let’s get up and go!

• Directions click here: Water Station, Mile 8, We will be at Hollywood Blvd & Lyman Place in east Hollywood, near Hillhurst Ave.

• Perks: A front-row seat to the marathon, a volunteer t-shirt, and that unbeatable feeling of helping your community.

Pro-Tip: Wear comfortable shoes and bring your loudest cheering voice!
