The primary goal is to restore the race route and "Start/Finish" areas to their original state immediately following the event. This involves removing debris, breaking down infrastructure, and ensuring that all waste is sorted and disposed of according to the city’s environmental guidelines.

Key Responsibilities

Course "Sweeping": Moving along the race route to collect discarded water bottles, energy gel packets, and clothing left behind by runners.

Hydration Station Cleanup: Breaking down water stations, folding tables, and clearing away thousands of paper cups and gallon jugs.

Infrastructure Teardown: Assisting in the removal of barricades, traffic cones, "Caution" tape, and directional signage.

Waste Sorting: Separating trash from recyclables and compost (organic waste) to meet the event’s sustainability goals.

Loading & Unloading: Throwing heavy bags of refuse into collection trucks and loading equipment into storage vans.

Safety Compliance: Wearing high-visibility gear and staying alert to moving vehicles or remaining athletes on the course.

Physical Requirements

Endurance: Ability to walk several miles over the course of a shift.

Strength: Ability to lift and carry up to 40–50 lbs (bags of wet trash or metal barricades).

Agility: Constant bending, reaching, and lifting.

Weather Resilience: Ability to work outdoors in rain, wind, or cold/heat.

Required Skills & Traits

Punctuality: Races run on a strict schedule; being late is usually not an option.

Situational Awareness: High level of focus while working near active traffic or heavy machinery (trash compactors).

Team Collaboration: Ability to take direction from a lead and work in "strike teams" to clear sections of the city rapidly.

Work Environment

You will be working in a high-energy, public-facing environment. While the runners provide the excitement, the cleanup crew is the "invisible" team that ensures the city stays happy with the event organizers by leaving the streets cleaner than they were before the race. Would you like the job?
