Those who completed the full marathon started in the dark at 6 a.m. Sunday. The course winds around Queensway Bay and Rainbow Harbor before sending runners eastward toward Belmont Shore, then northward past Alamitos Bay, Colorado Lagoon and Recreation Park before a turning east again so competitors can run around the Cal State Long Beach campus. From there, runners head down to Ocean Boulevard and let their legs power their bodies westward to return to the city’s shoreline area and the finish line near Marina Green Park.
Whereas Beneke pointed to the start of the race as a high point, Adan Ramos, 21, of Long Beach, singled out the final two miles and its cheering crowds for praise.
And after crossing the finish line, it was time for recovery and celebration.
“(I’m) a little sore, but I’ll be all right. I’ll be fine,” Jayson Warsuma, 33, of Los Angeles said after finishing the race.
Race results posted online show Warsuma completed the marathon in about three hours and 26 minutes. He acknowledged that he took things a little easy on a fairly hot day for running, but his aspirations include getting his marathon time below three hours.
Many runners’ race bibs bore their own names, but Kim Ho ran with the words “For Nathan” emblazoned below her number.
“Nathan is my son,” Ho, 46, of Long Beach said. “I’m with Train 4 Autism. I’m running for him and also a kid at Hamilton Middle School.”
Chip Jordan was the overall winner posting a time of 2:24:47. Mary Akor was the female winner with 2:46:49.

In 2010, this popular route was extended by another highlight: the field starts between the town hall, Schütting and Bürgerschaft and re-enters there. In between there is the proven mixture of exciting and quieter sections with altogether less power-consuming slopes: over the Neustadt, the Werdersee and Habenhausen to the second river crossing at the Weserwehr. Then Hastedt, Schwachhausen and Horn Spalier are the runners in the swb marathon.
The second half introduces the universe. Later it goes through the Bürgerpark, Findorff and the Überseestadt back to the Weser. Finally form the Schlachte, the Weser Stadium and the home straight over the Obernstraße to finish next to the Bremen Roland the very last highlights of the 42.195 kilometers.
