What is LA Loyal?
LA Loyal is a loyalty program that recognizes the dedicated runners who run the Los Angeles Marathon year after year. The program rewards runners who run more than one consecutive year and is open to anyone who meets enrollment deadlines.

You can check to see if you are qualified in the list above. This list will be updated at least once a month on or around the 15th of the month. Please email Solutions@mccourtfoundation.org with LA LOYAL as your subject line with any questions.
Where do I pick up my rewards?
All LA Loyal rewards, including bibs, pins and apparel, and 10-year LA Loyal medal are only available for pickup at the 2024 Los Angeles Marathon Expo on race weekend.
Complete details on when and where to pick up your swag will be emailed out closer to the marathon.
SRLA Program members will receive their swag separately. Any questions reach out to your SRLA coach/leader/contact.
I can’t attend the expo how do I get my rewards?
If you have purchased the Start Line Hospitality add on, you can pick-up your gear at the start line hospitality tent on race morning.
Can I skip a year and still be eligible?
No. Skipping a year will reset your eligibility for all tiers. The program requires you to run consecutive years. To remain eligible you must register for the 2024 Los Angeles Marathon by February 15, 2024
