Shifting Gears United hosted 37 athletes in the 2023 Miami Marathon on Sunday, January 23, 2023. Athletes began arriving on Saturday and were treated to a Publix lunch (thanks Publix) and then an Olive Garden dinner (thanks SandyJames Productions) and made repairs and modifications to their gear and took warmup rides.
Sunday, RACE DAY, began at 2:45 am with a Miami Police escort to the race start, with a Gun Start in the dark at 5:55 am.
Thank you to our amazing volunteers, guides, sponsors, hotel staff and team.
