(RRW) Athletics: Asics To Offer Special "Hall-Elujah" T-Shirt

From David Monti © 2009 Race Results Weekly, all rights reserved RaceResultsWeekly.com To help celebrate Ryan Hall's Boston Marathon debut on Monday, his shoe and apparel sponsor, Asics, has created a special tee-shirt which they will offer for sale exclusively at their booth at the Boston Marathon expo. The dark grey shirt bears a likeness of Hall winning the 2008 USA Olympic Trials Marathon, his right hand pointing to the sky, and the phrase "Hall-elujah!" splashed across the front in white lettering. The shirt was designed to exemplify both Hall's competitive spirit and his strong Christian faith. Hall, an Olympian and the USA record holder for the half-marathon, will be at the Asics booth in the flesh on Saturday, April 18, at 11:00 a.m. to greet fans and sign autographs. The Boston Marathon expo is located at the Hynes Convention Center at 900 Boylston Street in Boston's Back Bay neighborhood. The expo, and Asics's booth, opens on Friday at 2:00 p.m. and will run through Sunday (hours are posted at this link: BostonMarathon.org). The "Hall-elujah" tee-shirt will sell for $32.
