Thank you, Celsius, for fueling our team across a 200 mile relay race from Miami to Key West, FL. In an overnight race that took our team just under 29 hours to complete, there wasn't one leg of the race that wasn't pushed to the limit with the help of Celsius! Whether it was 6:00am, 2:47pm, or 1:30am, our team was energized to jump out of the van and hit the pavement. Once again, we couldn't have done it with you. We beat our last year's time by 1.5 hours, even with an added 7 miles on the course.
