I don’t have much to post today–I’m just getting a few things taken care of before I head down to the Rock and Roll Las Vegas Marathon Expo to work the Las Vegas in Motion booth for a while. If you want to run the race but haven’t signed up yet, come on down! There’s also a cowboy expo next door if that’s your thing.
Also, it’s time for my yearly reminder that Las Vegas gets cold in the winter. It was about 30 when I went out for my run this morning, with real ice on the street. So if you’re planning on walking the Strip in nothing but your Ed Hardy t-shirt and jeans this weekend, you’re going to be pretty cold.
Seriously, if you’re coming out to the Aria opening from SoCal, bring a jacket or a sweater (though it doesn’t have to be cashmere). We’re at the point now where, if you stop off in Baker for gas, you say, “Wow, it wasn’t this cold back home” when you get out of the car.
And if you’re running in the marathon, pick up a layer or two at Goodwill that you can strip off as you get warmer. We’re going to be outside for about a half hour before the gun goes off, and at best it’ll be in the upper 30s.
