♻️ Trashy Peep #1 and Trashy Peep #2 for Cocodona 250!

I’m so grateful to have met Steve and to be part of this role for the 2026 race. This was only the second year for the Trashy Peeps Team, and I’m thankful I got to help build it.

It might seem like trash pickup, recycling sorting, and compost drop‑off are small tasks… but they matter a lot.

Races create a TON of waste, and when an event can reduce its footprint—even a little—it makes a real impact.

Proud to play a small part in keeping the Cocodona experience cleaner, greener, and more sustainable for everyone out there on the course. 🌱💪

Baptism by fire…. Right??? 🤷🏽‍♀️

Things unlocked 🔓 on Tuesday with my rig
✅ driving over two water crossings
✅ driving sketchy backroads
✅ cows that look like bears

Made it to Arrastra aid station and back all in one piece… sort of 😵‍💫

Been meeting so many great staff/contractors/volunteers this week!

Monday…. How did it go??

Trashy Peeps crew started their morning off early!

Steve and I met at HQ to get his truck and off we went

🚚 Deep Canyon Ranch ➡️ picked up drop bags + some random supplies

🚚 Camp Kipa ➡️ dropped of AS supplies and drop bags

🚚 Camp Wamatochick ➡️ dropped of AS supplies and drop bags

🚚 Watson Lake ➡️ dropped off AS supplies, picked up supplies, and I got my truck 🙌🏼

It was a good day of getting to know my partner in crime for the week, learning about the race, meeting staff + volunteers
