VEGAS!


HANGOVER-FREE


& H E A LT H Y


There’s more to Las Vegas than pokies and showgirls.


A wellness scene is booming as editor Felicity Harley


discovered. Here, her top picks for your next trip...


RUN!
Rock ’n’ Roll Las Vegas
Marathon – The Strip
Once a year, Vegas’ main drag
closes so 40,000-odd runners
can experience what it’s like to
#stripatnight. I take on the
10km (there’s a five, half and full
marathon on offer, too) that
starts at 4pm. First up, we pass
the infamous wedding chapels
(you can get married mid-run
if you so wish). We snake
through Downtown and back
to the The Strip before running
the final two to three kays past
casinos like Treasure Island,
Mirage and the beaming Trump
Tower. There are many,
“Sheesh, I can’t believe this is
happening moments,” while live
bands play Elvis tracks along
the sidelines. At the finish line,
I can’t believe I’ve just punched
out a 10 kay run – the buzz,
the lights, the wacky sights –
a once in a lifetime experience.

WALK!
Indoor hike – ARIA
Resort & Casino
Hiking indoors for an hour?
We’re in Vegas, baby. Our
instructor Rocket guides our
group around this 4004-room
schmick hotel – stopping every
few minutes for us to do squats
on check-in lounges, lunges on
stairs and push-ups on the
slot-machine floor (on a yoga
mat), while we checked out
ARIA’s amazing interiors and art
work, high-quality gym and
a row of 10 Lamborghinis.

SEE!


Wind Dancer – Maverick
Helicopter Tour
We choppered out to the Grand
Canyon at dawn! The 7am tour
touched down in the middle of what
looked like Mars, and we sipped
champers and took selfies in front
of an epic redrock face. Simply
awesome! The tour finished off with
a ride over The Strip – a fantastic
aerial snapshot of this desert oasis.
