Race Info
The Las Vegas Marathon, first run in 1967, is one of the oldest marathons in the U.S. It returns for 2027 under producer Brooksee Event Productions with a redesigned out-and-back course starting and finishing at The STRAT hotel-casino, with a 6:30 a.m. start. Runners pass through the Fremont Street Experience early on, loop through Springs Preserve and nearby neighborhoods, then close with ten miles down the Las Vegas Strip past the Bellagio fountains and Caesars Palace.
