Great River Relay Last Call

I am planning on doing a fall marathon....and Beardsley's....but would really, really like to try get a group of women together to run the Great River Relay. I know I posted before and got some response from some.....if we are going to really do this, it's time to commit and know who is in for the relay. Email me with questions.... tell me what you need to know.
The relay is August 24 and 25th.
We need 12 women.
Each participant pays about $80
Each participant runs a total of 3 legs during the relay. The race is 24 consecutive hours...so some legs are run through the night.
Legs vary in distance between 3 and 8 miles.
We need 2 vehicles to transport runners
We could use 1 person as the support crew (biking, driving, etc)
If we can't do it with all women, I would be open to including pimps.

PLEASE let me know if you are 99-100% sure you want to run the relay. You can email me at lswedberg@anycollege.com or just respond here on the blog.

Disclaimer: I, Leah Swedberg, promise to leave my competitive nature at home and make this an extraordinarily FUN, good natured, TEAM event that will add to the list of unique life expereiences for all participants!
