You can see the tops of the hotels on the Las Vegas strip. This is the truck that was escorting the elite men runners in the Las Vegas "Rock N Roll" marathon.

They are heading west, going away from the Las Vegas strip, on Twain between Arville andDecatur. 

Look at the beautiful mountains that surround Las Vegas in all directions. The area has 2.2 million residents and housing developments that go right up to the foot of the mountains.  

ROCK N ROLL!!!

Once again, you can see the Las Vegas strip behind them. 

You can tell by looking at the police officer that it was still plenty cool at 7 am.

"Showing little sign of exhaustion, Rotich broke out a broad smile as she split the tape. And why not, as she stunned Ivanova with her late rally to claim the $15,000 first prize, while also winning the race’s male-female challenge, good for another $10,000."
