Why We Run: Peyton's Story
On March 29, 2019, Peyton Irwin was traveling to San Antonio, Texas to support her Alma Mater Drill Team at a state competition. A distracted driver texting on his phone failed to see Peyton's stopped vehicle and struck it at approximately 60 miles per hour, resulting in the tragic loss of Peyton and three other passengers.
This preventable tragedy underscores the critical importance of keeping our attention on the road. By participating in the Pineapple Run, you're helping us spread awareness and prevent similar tragedies in our community.
