Volunteers at a water station handing out Cytomax. I dislike Cytomax - too sweet, and the taste doesn't go away quickly. Seems like they signed a galactic agreement to be used at all of the R&R Marathons.
I told the volunteers to "smile" and one of them dutifully turned her back to get another cup ready to hand off. There goes her moment of fame...

Another band, viewed across a roadway full of runners. More construction in the background.

I think this photo says it all about LV. They charged me 10 seconds towards their finish time off of my time. Sounded like a good deal to me.

This is the New York, New York casino. See all the familiar buildings in the skyline? Incredible. What this must have cost. Think of how much $ they must get out of it to justify that kind of investment. Wow!

This is the Luxor casino. It is enormous. A Sphinx, an obelisk, and a 4-sided pyramid that lights up at night like a space ship. And it probably isn't the biggest. I am awed at the amount of money that has been poured into LV since I was last here about 20 years ago. Amazing.

Now, at 7:51, I can see the end of the starting line. 27,000 runners. Of course these folks can't see the actual starting line yet. but there's no one after them.
