The Philadelphia Marathon is fast approaching (ha!), and those fleet-footed folks are looking for volunteers to help support the thousands of athletes who will converge upon the Art Museum on November 18. Tasks range from stuffing runner bags two weeks out to distributing blankets and Gatorade on race day. You can sign up for a specific job or offer your services as a general volunteer to be dispatched where you're needed most. You can also form a team and sign up together for one of the larger jobs. For more info, contact Terry at GP Cares (215-564-4544).
Phillyist used to live along the route, playing host one year to some out-of-town runners, and it's exciting being anywhere near the race; volunteers are guaranteed a good time. So sign up, and help ensure the day runs smoothly! (God, we're cracking ourselves up today.)
