Starting to recruit some runners

I've started to talk about the challenge to a number of runners at my law school and they all seem to be intrigued. So far no one has been interested enough to run the full 48 with me, but they're up for running a segment of 8.

If I can get at least 6 people to run one 8-mile segment with me, that'd be fantastic. I've already talked to a friend from high school who is debating running a virtual race with me, as is Laura at Absolut(ly) Fit.

Anyone else up for running at least a couple miles with me, virtually or otherwise?
