As promised, last weekend was awesome! I walked in to the office this morning with some great new friends, a better tan, a huge smile, and a deeper level of exhaustion than when I walked out on Friday. So, in other words, Race to Rehab was a huge success! Here’s a bit on what all went down.
On Saturday morning, Blake and I met the up with the guys from Outlaw Offroad / Outlaw Raptor to help set up for the event. The whole scene, including the trucks, looked amazing! The helmets were set out, the trucks were lined up, and every last detail had been thought of between their team and ours. I was impressed with utlaw Offroad / Outlaw Raptor and absolutely loved meeting and working with all of them!
Last minute preparations were made as the athletes and winners showed up and got situated in their new rides. Ken Block, Casey Currie, Vaughn Gittin Jr, and BJ Baldwin started some friendly competition right from the get-go with some trash talking about who would “win” the race (when in reality, it wasn’t even a race!). My boyfriend Will was among the winners and it was great to have familiar face from home around. I was so stoked for him and Kiefer, his guest, to be a part of Race to Rehab. Unfortunately, Blake and I weren’t able to ride in the trucks with everybody, but it was still really great to be there and involved in the excitement.
When everybody took off for the trail, Blake and I set off for Subway to pick up lunch for the group. Let me tell you, getting 45 sandwiches from Subway to a destination 100 miles away in the middle of a desert wasteland is not an easy task. It was 115º out when we met back up with everybody to serve the food and let the mechanics tend to the trucks. They had already popped three tires!
