Just wondering if any WISHers are doing the Las Vegas Half in December?

Padstack · 04-22-2009, 10:22 AM

I received an e-mail that offered $25 off registration for the Las Vegas RNR Marathon/Half-Marathon. Here is the body of the e-mail:

Wendy! You make me laugh!! Let's see, you did a reverse "Goofy" training for the real Goofy and you think I'm braver than you?? No way!

We couldn't use the code at the CMM expo, so I just registered us online today. The code is good til May 1st, who else wants to party in Vegas??

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:

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.

Wow! This is too good to be true and very difficult to pass up for sure.

Thanks for the info.

Just think of all that bonus bling!!!

2 RnR events = 26.2 Musical Miles bonus medal
3 RnR events = Triple Crown bonus medal
4 RnR events = Grand Slam bonus medal

Let's party in Vegas!!

Padstack · 04-30-2009, 01:40 PM

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.
