DIRECTIONS
*Red Rock Canyon is roughly 20 minutes from downtown and "the strip" and within 10- 45 minutes of most residential areas of the valley.
Directions to the bus pick up/ drop off area:
Directions to the bus pick up area will be available once the location is determined.
DROP OFF:
If you are having someone drop you off for the race, or are taking a taxi- you may have them DROP you off at the race start. This will also help alleviate the workload for the buses. For the Marathon, this is at the Visitors' Center for Red Rock Canyon (see directions below). The gates will be closed until 6am, but you can be dropped at the gate and walk thru up to the Visitors' Center (about 0.5 mile). If you are running the 1/2 Marathon you can be dropped off at your start line, which is at the exit of the scenic loop. Follow the directions below, but continue past the entrance about 2 miles. You will see a dirt lot at the exit of the loop- this is your starting area.
