Fast Running Blog will have a booth at the expo in St. George. We need a volunteer to man it. We could use more than one, that would make things easier. Contact me if interested.

I really think you are going to have a hard time finding anyone who is going to want to stand and man a booth the night before a marathon.  You probably should put what is expected out of the person, like what time they would be done, if they would have to take the booth down that night and stuff like that.  I know that Steve did a booth last year and didn't have that great of a race becuase of the stress and late night he had that night.
I also think it should be maned by the person who knows the Fast Running Blog the best Wink

I've worked expos before for my race course maps, and it's very very tiring. Not just physically from all the standing, but also mentally and emotionally, as you're talking to tons of people, trying to sell your product, be charming, etc. etc.

I would suggest that you get people to take shifts no longer than 1 hour. But if you're there the whole day, you may as well add 5 minutes to your finish time the next day.

Yes, this would have to be somebody who is not running the race. Free ride from Provo and back + accommodations can be provided if necessary.
