        New Las Vegas Marathon's Course to Run Las Vegas Strip

The New Las Vegas Marathon has received approval from Clark County, Nevada 
and the City of Las Vegas for the first running event in history to shut 
down the world famous Las Vegas Strip so you can run this awe-inspiring 
neon corridor. 

The race will be capped at 15,000 participants for the New Las Vegas 
Marathon on December 4, 2005. Online registration is open now at 
www.lvmarathon.com and the race is expected to sell out quickly. Anyone who 
registers between now and April 30 will receive a long sleeve, in-training 
t-shirt with the New Las Vegas Marathon logo.
