What. A. Weekend. 🙌

The kept us moving long before the start and way after the finish!

🚚 Thursday & Friday: Loading U‑Hauls, organizing signs, and getting everything prepped for race weekend.

🚦 Saturday: A not‑too‑early call time — setting the course, leading as the pace car, and gearing up for Sunday.

🌅 Sunday: An early start — course setup, pace car duties, then pivoting wherever needed: delivering ice to aid stations 🧊, monitoring participants on the Shoreway, grabbing lunch orders, unloading U‑Hauls… you name it, we were on it.

It was a long one — but being part of such a big, iconic Cleveland race is always worth it. 💙🖤
Already excited for next year!

(the lead pace car that I drove was a fancy ride! Beautiful 2027 model 🔥 )

Last day of Trashy Peeps duty called for packing up the LAST aid station for 🚚

I got to the aid station early and actually was able to see the last two runners leave the aid station before the cut off. 🙌🏼 talk about digging deep for the last few miles!

Took my load to Fort Tuthill for trash 🚮 drop off, recycling ♻️, and compost 🍌

Then drove the 🚚 back with Sean to HQ!

(No pics of the last drop off or the drive back to Phoenix)
