Iron Girl 2010 Loews Lake Las Vegas photos and more…

May 17th, 2010 -  Iron Girl 2010 event this past weekend at Loews Lake las Vegas, Henderson, Nevada appears to have been a big success and fun.   We were spending a staycation at Loews this weekend and just happened on the event.  This is the thrid year for this event at Loews.  From what I saw the event was well-organized and ran like clock work for those involved.  It helps to have great corporate sponsors behind you so you can do it right and safely.  

  

 
 

Iron Girl 2010 Swim start at Loews Lake Las Vegas, Henderson, Nv.

During the two days we were there we met many great people some with interesting stories about why they were competing.  Many of the locals train for this event on the River Mountains Loop Trail for the run and bike portions of the triathlon.  I have also been advised that Loews is developing a triathlon training program for future upcoming events in the area and also at Lake Las Vegas later this year.  ..more on this later. 

As far as our stay at Loews it was an outstanding experience…it is one of Henderson’s and  Southern Nevada’s best kept secrets.  Try it, you will like it.

Love our trail!

Love our trail!🎙️ New Podcast Episode Alert 🚨

Ever wondered what it takes to maintain 34 miles of paved paradise? 🌵

In this episode of The Best Dam Podcast, Howard is joined by Paul Grube, President of the River Mountains Loop Trail Partnership. Paul takes us behind the scenes of one of Southern Nevada’s most beloved outdoor assets—the River Mountains Loop Trail.

www.bouldercitychamber.com/connecting-communities-34-miles-of-cycling-hiking-and-history-on-the-r...

From its "happy hour" beginnings in the late '90s to becoming a world-class 34-mile loop connecting Boulder City, Henderson, and Lake Mead, this trail is a testament to community vision.

Highlights include:

🐢 The funny story of the "moving rock" (spoiler: it was a tortoise!).
🐑 Tips for spotting bighorn sheep and other local wildlife.
🛠️ How the Partnership acts as the "eyes and ears" to keep the trail safe.
🚲 Why you don’t even need your own bike to get started.

Whether you’re a hardcore cyclist or just love a morning stroll, you won’t want to miss Paul’s insights on this local treasure! ☀️
