Wow. Just wow!

The 2015 Los Angeles Marathon takes place on Sunday and to mark the even sportswear company Asics created an art installation that was simply mind-blowing. A total of 124 spotlights pointed into the sky from 26 locations, each marking a mile point of the race. The pictures are incredible. Enjoy. https://twitter.com/LAist/status/576787303605100544 No matter what angle you look at it it's incredible

And the video is perhaps the best of all

Lights for the #LAMarathon were setup for each mile of the race. They turned the lights back on late last night when a cloud bank rolled in, and I captured it! Beautiful creation, Circuit Board Species! #LA #LAStory #huffpostgram #discoverla @losangeles_city
