Las Vegas Marathon Round Up

by Nathan on Dec.09, 2009, under running

Things didn’t go quiet according to plan, but the whole event was pretty amazing. I think i’ll try and get back out to the desert for next year. Simple, flat, and wide course with some cool temperatures. I felt pretty good but didn’t have the speed to get me even close to my goal. Ran a 3:23, thinking maybe too much travel in the last few weeks could have slowed me down, but all in all it was an enjoyable run.

The race started with some flying Elvis’ coming out of the sky with tigers and showgirls to set you off. The largest marathon I have been apart of with a lot of water stations, time clocks, and markers along the route. I ran without music so I could take in all the bands and wasn’t super impressed with the amount of music, with the 6:15 start it would make it pretty hard to round them up.

I think this is near the end...
