If your matter is urgent, please contact Kelsey Jackson 417-425-9400 (cell) or kjackson@pittsburghmarathon.com.

Race Day Credentials
To receive Race Day Media Credentials, please submit your information to media@pittsburghmarathon.com on or before April 29, 2012. We require your name, media affiliation, address, phone number, fax number and email address. Place “credentials” in the subject line. Media outlets who will be sending a large crew are encouraged to provide a single comprehensive list if possible. Only individuals with press credentials will be admitted to the Press Room and restricted photo areas on race day. It is possible that we will have a Photo Bridge and Media Truck available; if so, you will need to have special clearance for these areas. If you would like access to restricted photo opportunities near the start or finish line, or access to the Media Truck, please include that in your request and we will be in touch with you.

Race Week Press Information
Our pre-race press conference will provide information on logistics, the elite and competitive athletes participating, weather and medical concerns, and other important event information. Printed press kits will be available on-site, and most information will be posted online. Our press relations team will answer your questions regarding sponsors, our charity fundraising program, ideas for feature stories, elite athlete information, road closures, spectator information, and more. To gain access to our on-site press room at the David L. Lawrence Convention Center, please apply in advance for race day credentials. If you would like to receive all race press releases, please email Kelsey Jackson - kjackson@pittsburghmarathon.com and enter “subscribe” in the subject line.
