Las Vegas -- The Toyota Rock ‘n’ Roll Las Vegas Marathon & ½ Marathon celebrates 10 years on the Vegas Strip welcoming 40,000 registered participants traveling from all 50 states and 86 countries. As the only private event to shut down the famed Las Vegas Strip, it's a unique opportunity for marathoners of all backgrounds. With a start just as the sun is setting, the race comes to life under the lights of Las Vegas. Even when the course moves off of the Strip, music and lights kept the runners company all the way back to the finish line. This year's winners for the men's and women's full marathon were Tommy Puzey of Flagstaff, Arizona and - in her first ever marathon - Hannah McInturff of Salt Lake City, Utah. In this clip, a soundbite with Ellen Manika of Germany, who traveled from Las Vegas to see her father run in the marathon. November 11, 2018. Credit: Erich Albl/Las Vegas News Bureau
