I will be registering on Thursday, payday. I will be driving in Saturday morning and staying thru Wednesday or Thursday for a convention. Right now I have reservations at the Hampton Inn just a few blocks away from Mandalay Bay, but will change it if I find a better rate at one of the closer hotels. And the good news keeps coming, from the RnR Las Vegas website:

Quote:
Finish Line Festival
Finishing a marathon or half marathon in Vegas calls for an all-out, rockin’ party! Celebrate your accomplishment with live music, refreshments and beer just outside the Mandalay Bay Resort and Casino. As a special reward, each race participant will receive one FREE MGD 64 light beer*, which will also be available for cash purchase in designated areas.

Just got an e-mail from Excalibur for outstanding rates of $50 per night for Dec. 4 & 5 and then $26 per night for the week before and after.

Save up to 30%

THE SOONER YOU BOOK AT EXCALIBUR, THE MORE YOU WILL SAVE! SAVE UP TO 30% OFF OF OUR ALREADY GREAT RATES.


They have a tram thingy that will take you to and from the Mandalay Bay.

3 RnR events = Triple Crown bonus medal
4 RnR events = Grand Slam bonus medal

Let's party in Vegas!!

And the deals keep coming. Got this e-mail from the Luxor this morning:

LOWEST RATES EVER!

Luxor's Special Discount Rates


Pyraimd room is $70/night for Friday & Saturday, then $42/night for the week following. The previous week is $70/night.

I already made reservations at Excalibur, but I might give this one a try as I have never stayed at the Luxor. Hmmm...

Hey Pat, I'll see you there. I'm signing up for the Full. I figure it will be a good warm-up for Honolulu the following week.

Great deal! I did the LV half marathon last year and won't be missing the inaugural RNR LV marathon in 2009. I'm doing the full this time. See you all there!
