 I am sharing some info for all you guys following this page that are over 40 and can run at least a nine minute mile pace for the Hood to Coast relay. 
Hello to all my running friends, the Hood to Coast running team I used to run with for probably about a half dozen times the Dead Jocks are looking for a team member for this years race. It would be on August 28th through the 29th.  They’re looking for someone who is over 40 and should be able to run at least if not better 9 minute mile pace. 
I’ve done this late entry thing a couple times in the past. You would be responsible for getting yourself up there and any personal expenses, like your own food and drinks that you would need. They could provide pre-race housing, and most likely would be willing to pick you up and drop you off at the airport.
Other expenses to be on the team would be 
$400 buy-in includes team entry fee, fuel, van rental, and 1 night's lodging at finish. If you’ve done the 24 hour relay thing you know what the experience is like if you haven’t, it’s a one-of-a-kind type of thing. If I was in running shape, I’d be buying a ticket and heading up there myself, but that’s not what’s happening these days. Let me know if you’re interested and I will get you in touch with long time Dead Jocks and friend John Gordon who can give you more info.  I have attached the Hood to Coast relay website link below.
