LAS VEGAS — With their early morning starts, runners competing in the big marathons in Chicago and New York know that they can wear extra clothes in the early miles, then shed them as the day warms up. But competitors in Sunday’s Zappos.com Rock ‘n’ Roll Marathon & 1/2 Marathon here will face the opposite challenge: falling temperatures and a lack of warming sunshine after they start in the late afternoon and run into the night. http://wdcsports.blogspot.com/2011/12/to-night-start-boon-for-las-vegas.html
