26.2 Reasons We’re Proud of Our Team
STO teammates laced up for the 2026 Glass City Marathon — and they delivered.
The STO relay team — Nick Wingate, Donna Wingate, Joe Shrader, Ashley Greely & Bob Feldbauer — finished 4th in the Corporate Mixed Relay division.
On April 27, 2026, the streets of Toledo filled with thousands of runners for the Glass City Marathon. Mixed in with the crowd were seven people from Shrader Tire & Oil — from the corner office to the shop floor — who showed up, put in the miles, and reminded us that the same grit that drives this company shows up well outside of work hours too.
The Relay Team: 4th Place, Corporate Mixed Division
Five members of the STO family joined forces to tackle the relay: Joe Shrader (CEO), Bob Feldbauer (CFO), Ashley Greely (Safety Training Manager), and Nick and Donna Wingate from our Perrysburg location.
The team finished 4th out of all mixed male/female teams in the corporate relay division. It’s not every day you see a CEO and CFO running alongside a safety manager and a husband-and-wife team from the shop. But that’s kind of the point — at STO, the org chart doesn’t define who we are. This team shared miles, cheered each other on, and crossed the finish line together.

The Full Marathon: Neil Chryst’s 24th
Neil Chryst, Sales, crossing the finish line — marathon #24.
And then there’s Neil Chryst, Sales, who ran the full 26.2 miles — for the 24th time.
Twenty-four marathons. Let that sink in. While most of us are still negotiating with ourselves to take the stairs, Neil has been quietly stacking full marathons for years. No fanfare, no fuss — just showing up, putting in the work, and finishing strong. If you’ve ever been on a sales call with Neil, this probably doesn’t surprise you.
What This Has to Do With Tires (Bear With Us)
We’re a tire and oil company. We spend our days thinking about uptime, reliability, and keeping fleets moving. Those things don’t happen by accident — they take consistency, preparation, and people who don’t quit when it gets hard.
That’s the same mentality we saw on the course Sunday. And it’s the same one our team brings to work every day. Whether it’s 3 a.m. roadside service, a retread program that saves a fleet real money, or a 24th marathon, the common thread is people who are built to go the distance.
Celebrating at the finish — medals well earned.
Proud of every one of them. See you at mile 25 next year. 💙
