Casting Boston Marathon Runners, Wheelchair Athletes & Volunteers

Slate Casting is looking for people who have run the Boston Marathon, wheelchair competitors, and people who have volunteered at the race for a social media campaign. Submissions are now being accepted.

“We are searching for people with unique stories about their participation in the Boston Marathon,” said Casting Director Ashley Skomurski of Slate Casting. “You don’t have to be running it this year, but if you’ve competed in the past, have some great stories about your experience or advice for other runners and wheelchair athletes, we want to hear from you. We are also interested in people who have volunteered at the race and had a great time doing it! This project is open to all ages and no acting experience is necessary. We’re just looking for current Boston Marathoners, volunteers and alumni who love the sport and the event!”

To be considered for the project, submit a current photo, contact information, a brief description of your Boston Marathon experience and your Instragram handle if you have one to
