Can anyone recommend any reasonable workouts in walking distance to the strip?

    The strip IS a workout.

    All the hotels have gyms. If you go in the summer, there are pools.

    I was there in June. My fiance and I both had intentions of using the hotel gym, but never did... However, we walked nearly EVERYWHERE, only taking cabs back to our hotel after shows when we were on the complete other side of the strip if it was late, or we were too tired. (We stayed at Treasure Island, and went to shows at Excalibur and New York New York.) On any given day, we would walk at least 4 miles, usually more (down and back, down and back.)

    So, in reply to your question, The Strip IS a workout. But, if you're wanting more, take advantage of your hotel gym if they have one.

    According to my fitbit, I walked 70 miles when we were there in October for 5 days :D Vegas IS a workout. I also did stairs instead of escalators. There are LOTS of stairs in Vegas if you want to do them! :D (I did use the elevator to our room tho, lol- not THAT dedicated!)

    I guess I should have elaborated :) but thanks for everyone's responses!
    This is my 3rd time going to Vegas.
    I do plan to walk everywhere, the gym is $15/day extra, just seems a bit high! many of the Zumba classes that I have found are for employees only. I plan to also pack my resistance bands..I didn't know if there were any can't miss workouts on the strip.
    Thanks again all!

    Actually a couple of the bootcamps in town use the Strip on weekends for workouts. I believe there are stairs in front of Fashion Show that you could run. You could also run the stairs in the hotel you're staying in. I did The Hotel at Mandalay Bay stairs to train for Scale the Strat. I wouldn't want to pay $15 a day either! Or while walking the Strip you could make every block or so push ups, burpees, squats, etc. Did a scavenger hunt with boot camp on the Strip and we did a lot of that. If you have a computer you could probably find some Zumba type videos on youtube and do those. Good Luck.

    There are several city parks, find the nearest one and run.

    Most hotels are charging a resort fee $9.99 and up per day in additional to the daily rate. If your hotel is charging this...it should include internet and gym.
