RnR Vegas was my first half marathon, and I could not be happier that it was!! My first 13.1 experience began at the expo. Th expo was large, organized, and had tons of vendors. It was a party atmosphere and I could have easily spent several hours there. At the expo, we picked up our bibs and our shirts. The shirts were just alright. On the whole, I am not a fan of RnR shirts. But they have some other cute gear available for purchase and lots of freebies.
Getting to the starting line was very challenging as I was local at the time. However, I'm sure that a tourist could easily just hop on the bus. If you arrive via private car, make sure to plan for a few extra miles. The concert the year that I attended was Snoop Dogg and he was AWESOME! After the party, it was time to run!! This course is unmatched!! It's flat, fast, and right down the Las Vegas strip. There was even some crowd support. As you cross the finish line, you feel like a celebrity. The medal is consistently cute and the post race beer is good too!
I think that most runners would really enjoy this race and should put it on their bucket list!
