Expert 653 Henderson, NV | Subject: RE: Rock n Roll Marathon Las Vegas , Official now The newsletter I got said the course is changing and is still in the works. I am very excited and possibly running it with my wife. I ran it before and must say, it will be better with Rock N Roll! |

Expert 626 Las Vegas, NV | Subject: RE: Rock n Roll Marathon Las Vegas , Official now You will not see anything for a while, while they are revemping the course and everything else with permits. The Rock-n-roll Corporation is now the new owner, and I know from experience they really put together some awesome races together. Patience, it will be an awesome race, and probably expect it up sell out. |

Elite 3518 Madison, Wisconsin | Subject: RE: Rock n Roll Marathon Las Vegas , Official now Thinking about doing this one....does it sell out quickly? |

Extreme Veteran 750 Long Beach, Mississippi | Subject: RE: Rock n Roll Marathon Las Vegas , Official now It didn't sell out quickly in the past, but now it's a RnR... who knows what that'll do to the enrollment |

Expert 626 Las Vegas, NV | Subject: RE: Rock n Roll Marathon Las Vegas , Official now I have a feeling that as an R&R race, it will sell out. But then, with the economy, who knows. A lot of races that sell out quickly are not selling as quickly anymore. Well, maybe the full and some HIM. Good luck. PS. I usually don;t do this, but 2009 is upon us, and I'm again working toward Operation Rebound fund-raising this year. If you are interested, please do not hesitate to click on the link and make some pledges. USAT has endorsed this and is very much behind it. Let's support our fellow soldiers who come back from the Middle East and who have lost a leg, an arm or somthing else. Let's show our support toward them. Our Operation Rebound California Team last year raised over $180,000.00 and this was enough to provide new prostetics for over 14 military soldiers, in which 4 of them are racing in California with us this year. If you need motivation, just come and see those guys, then you will wonder who are we to think we can't do what we do, and that is the sport of Triathlon. Also, two para-olympians will be there racing relays, in which OZ who won the Gold medal in hand-cycling is racing. They are an amazing group of people, and great friends you make. Hooyaaa!!! |

The Original 7834 Raleigh/Durham | Subject: RE: Rock n Roll Marathon Las Vegas , Official now Is anyone familiar with the course? I was trying to see the elevation for it but it doesn't look like a profile has been posted for it. I'm assuming it should be pretty flat- yes?? |

Champion 5807 Henderson NV | Subject: RE: Rock n Roll Marathon Las Vegas , Official now It is pretty flat. I will try to map a elevation of it. I should have thought of that. I live here and I don't recall it being any hills, but then again when I am on that part of town I am driving. |

Expert 1076 Las Vegas, NV | Subject: RE: Rock n Roll Marathon Las Vegas , Official now It's a pretty flat course, no real hills. Might be a slight elevation gain heading west from mile 17.5 to 19. I'll ride the route and upload the profile from the Garmin 705. |

Extreme Veteran 750 Long Beach, Mississippi | Subject: RE: Rock n Roll Marathon Las Vegas , Official now If you're riding your bike, just a warning that on Rainbow from Twain to Hacienda, it isn't very bike friendly... even though it shows it as bike friendly on the RTC bike map  |

Expert 1076 Las Vegas, NV | Subject: RE: Rock n Roll Marathon Las Vegas , Official now You can also take Torrey Pines to Trop instead of Rainbow as that's got a nice bike lane the entire way. I think the Las Vegas Blvd. part until Desert Inn is the most unfriendly/crowded part to ride. Nothing like trying to ride the strip on a bike! I've done the Fremont area heading south to get to Boulder Hwy, but not the main strip itself yet. |

Champion 5807 Henderson NV | Subject: RE: Rock n Roll Marathon Las Vegas , Official now Most of my riding is on the Henderson side of town...So I am kind of lost when it comes to riding over there. Thanks for the ideas. |

Extreme Veteran 1112 Las Vegas | Subject: RE: Rock n Roll Marathon Las Vegas , Official now Just registered for the full shot today. It's the last day before the cost goes up and I was trying to hold out so I didn't have to do it. but I'm committed now |

Champion 5807 Henderson NV | Subject: RE: Rock n Roll Marathon Las Vegas , Official now Yeah, I registered as well so I guess I have to do it....sigh. What was I thinking? I have an 18 miler scheduled today so I guess I will kind of see how it will go. Then again next weekend is a 20 so that is even closer. Thinking now is: I have a bike and a car, why the heck am I running? LOL. |
