Running in Vegas

Kath712

Hi - I'm tagging along with my husband when he goes to a conference in Vegas the first week of November, staying at Mandalay Bay. It's been over 10 years since we've been to Vegas, and I wasn't a runner then. I'll probably have a lot of downtime that week while he's at the conference, so I'm wondering if I'll be able to go for a run or two. I'd much prefer to run outside instead of the treadmill, but are there any good places to run? Any suggestions?

Good morning Kath. I would suggest you contact the Mandalay Concierge desk and request for their recommended running routes through the city ~ with the hotel as the start and end point, most especially since you aren't a regular and are obviously not familiar with the city.

Bearing that in mind, you should also schedule your runs before the foot traffic starts ~ usually during normative work hours around 8ish and not before the evening activities end before actual daylight ~ 6ish is a safe start time. lol. If you were to choose to run before then(5ish), psyche yourself to have run ins with the Sanitation crews et al.
