Pro tips

  1. 01

    Cold Dawn Start

    The 06:30 start comes with race-day temperatures typically around 5.9C, so wear layers you can shed once the sun is up and the desert air warms.

  2. 02

    Same Start and Finish

    This is a loop from the STRAT, so you finish where you began — no finish-line shuttle to plan for, and spectators can see you off and welcome you back at the same spot.

  3. 03

    Know the Three Stretches

    The course threads the Strip, Fremont Street and Springs Preserve, so expect three distinct feels: open boulevard, tighter neon-lined downtown blocks, and quieter desert-edge paths.

    Pick Your Distance

    Alongside the marathon there is a half marathon and a 7.02-mile race tied to the local area code, so shorter-distance runners can still take on the same Strip course.
