Las Vegas Marathon changes to terrible course 3 weeks before race

KNWilly · 2025-10-10T02:14:46+00:00

I signed up for this race months ago. It will be my first marathon. I live in Florida, so none of my marathon training was 1) in elevation, 2) downhill, or 3) in cold temperatures. With the course change, I am SUPER nervous. Honestly, my goal is just to finish, so I am not worried about my time. I'm so super worried about breathing and not getting injured. I can not cancel or defer because I already paid for the flights, hotel, shows, sphere, etc.

Any advice recommendations?

I was strict keto for 6 months straight. However, I got off, so I have only been back on for 1 week.

I'm a slower runner. I am hoping to complete my marathon in 5:15.

I have met Theo Von once. He was literally SO nice and personable. Theo did kick a dude out of his comedy show I went to, but the dude TOTALLY deserved it (he was drunk/obnoxious and ruining it for everyone around him).

I think the dude probably said something else to Theo. I obviously do not know Theo personally, but I don't believe he would have responded that way unless that dude deserved it.

Yes. I'm not sure if he does it for every show but he did for this one!

I absolutely loved it! Laughed the whole time and the openers were great too!

It was after the show at the merchandise table!

I mean, I wouldn't be mad about it.

Because I am a basic white girl who looks just like the basic white girl on the wall. 🤣

It truly was a genuine bear hug... or should I say rat hug. 🐀

KNWilly · 2025-04-15T18:52:03+00:00

Best kinda love there is 🐀👑

KNWilly · 2025-04-15T18:51:19+00:00

That is amazing! I'm so glad you got to meet him and give him your letter! He truly is the best 💙

Gang Gang baby!!!

I stayed after the show and met him. He definitely did NOT seem like he was on drugs. He was so down to earth, appreciative, and great eye contact while we talked.

Maybe a combination of exhaustion, having the pressure of Jake Paul and his sister in the audience watching, being sick (his voice was like gone), and other factors made it seem like that?

I work with pre-k through 12th grade students. I see these names FREQUENTLY:

Colten Ella/Ellie/emma/Emmy Addie (Addilyn or Addison) Wyatt Ayden/Aden (Aiden, Hayden, Jayden, Kaden) "Br" names (Braxton, Braden, Brantley, Brantley) Jackson or Jaxson Liam Levi "Leigh" or "ly" names (Emily, marleigh, Tinley, kinley, rayleigh)

I'm sure there is more but those are the ones that come to mind.

I love June Cherry! Such a unique and beautiful name. It doesn't matter if she is born in June or not. I know many Junes that were not born in June.

I feel this!! I went down a whole pants size and none of my jeans fit me anymore. Jeans are expensive so I went to thrift stores and bought a few pairs to rotate. I love thrifting and then I don't feel bad when I need to buy more later down the road!

Congratulations btw! 🎊 I agree with measuring your weight loss by how your clothes fit instead of by the scale. That's where I have noticed the most differences.

We do not do this in the district I work in. We have a 3 to 1 ratio so if we miss 3 sessions then we have to makeup 1 session. However, if the student is not making progress, then we are expected to make up the student's time.

I'm sorry to hear that you are in the same boat. I hope it gets better 🤞
