FYI an email I just recieved,
 
Hi Bob,
 
I am with an event marketing agency and we have a client who is a booth sponsor at a race in Glendale, CA on Sunday, October 18.  We are looking for someone to run the 5K as our client’s mascot and an associate runner to run behind the mascot to make sure that he or she is doing ok.  Below is my posting and I was wondering if you can send it to people who are part of your running club.  Thanks so much!
 
We are an event marketing agency looking for a runner to help us with an upcoming promotion. The runner must be someone who enjoys running while having fun too.  We are looking for someone to represent a major beverage client of ours by running the 5K on Sunday, October 18 dressed as the brand’s mascot. The height requirement is 5’7”- 6’2” and maximum weight of 200 lbs. We are looking for someone who can finish 18:00 – 23:00.  The costume is lightweight, breathable and built with the consultation of a marathon runner. The runner will also be given an Under Armour cap to make the run as dry and comfortable as possible. In addition to giving the runner an Under Armour cap, we will pay for the race registration and free product. The runner will be paid $75 to participate in the run as well as $10/hour for the duration of the run and any post event promotion (posing for photos with other runners and spectators). The runner will also receive a $100 bonus from The Eleven Agency if s/he finishes with a medal in his/her category.  We are also looking for an associate runner to run with the mascot.
