FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

                          Super Bowl Bet Between 
 Boston Marathon and ING New York City Marathon Race Executives "Kicks Off"

Boston and New York, February 1, 2012-The Super Bowl battle between the New 
England Patriots and the New York Giants will take to the streets with a 
"running" bet between Boston Athletic Association  executive director Tom 
Grilk and New York Road Runners president and CEO Mary Wittenberg, it was 
jointly announced today by race officials. 

If the Patriots win, Wittenberg will wear a Tom Brady jersey during the 
2012 B.A.A. 5K on Sunday, April 15, during Boston Marathon weekend. If the 
Giants prevail, Grilk will don an Eli Manning jersey during the 2012 NYRR 
Dash to the Finish Line 5K on Saturday, November 3, during ING New York 
City Marathon weekend.

For the Patriots and Giants, the road to the Super Bowl will turn into a 
highly anticipated fight on the field in Indianapolis on Sunday. The 
championship game will determine which of these notable marathon executives 
will be "fielding" wisecracks down the road-a 3.1 mile road, to be exact.

16. For more information, visit www.baa.org.
