FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

     The Missoula Marathon To Offer Free Photos To Participants

Missoula, MT --  The Missoula Marathon, HuHot Mongolian Grill and Referee 
Photo have combined efforts to provide a free photo to every finisher of 
the 2009 Missoula Marathon coming up Sunday, July 12.

"We wanted HuHot to become a sponsor of the Missoula Marathon because the 
corporate headquarters are here in Missoula and we view this as a healthy 
event for the community," explained Mary Halloran, VP of Creative 
Development and one of several partners in the family-owned company. "We 
wanted to do something creative that the athletes would appreciate - 
something that fits and is unique to the Missoula Marathon."  

Rick O'Connor of Referee Photo had the idea of providing a photo to every 
athlete that finishes the Marathon, Half Marathon, Marathon Relay or Kids 
Marathon.   "All we needed was the right sponsor," said Jennifer Straughan, 
Race Director.  "I was very hopeful when Mary called and said she wanted to 
find a way to work with us that the photos might be a possibility."

When athletes cross the finish line they will have the option of stopping 
at the HuHot photo booth.  Referee Photo takes the photos and has the 
ability to print them out right there on the spot, so the athlete can take 
the photo at that time.  Marathon and Half Marathon participants will 
receive individual photos, Marathon Relay teams will have a team photo, and 
Kids Marathon participants will have photos taken in groups.

Athletes will also have the option of purchasing any other photos from 
Referee Photo as they are posted on-line after the event.
