We’d like to give a big-ups to the crew at AdAge/Crain Communications for putting together a team to race against leukemia/lymphoma. To raise sponsorship dough, they’re hosting an event tonight (details below); alcohol will be involved. Unfortunately we can’t attend, but we’d love to see some pics of Editor Jonah Bloom and pioneering reporter Rupal Parekh pouring drinks. Something tells me Jonah was the inspiration for Cocktail!.
It’s $45 bones at the door, but if you have any interest in knowing that a bunch of Crain’s staffers will be sweating their asses off during a half-marathon, this event is one you’ll want to sponsor. More info here. Register here.
A good cause is a good cause. Hope no one dies during the probably super-hot run. Irony! Seriously, don’t die Parish.
