About the Bound for Boston Marathon & Half Marathon - Las Vegas
The course is a short loop repeated until you hit your distance, certified for Boston qualifying. It is flat and fast by design. Music and entertainment are posted along the route to break up the repetition, and timing clocks at the mile point show your split as you pass, which makes pacing straightforward. Faster runners have the inside line; slower paces move to the right.
Packet pickup happens on race morning, opening about an hour before the start, right at the race site. There is no separate day before to worry about.
