Talk about taking your money and running.

Powerball winner Edwin Castro charged through a California 10K race Saturday morning — days after a judge cleared him of allegations he stole his record-breaking $2.04 billion ticket.

The free man, 31, soared through the Manhattan Beach 10k run in 1 hour, 1 minute and 42 seconds, race results show.

Castro’s 9:55 per-mile average made him the 1,772nd overall finisher out of 3,612 racers.

That also landed him the 189th spot for the male 30-34 age bracket, which had 255 total runners.

The Post caught Castro looking slightly distressed as he picked up his race bib Friday.

The lottery winner was spotted frowning as he looked down at his phone in one hand, with his racing number in his other.

It’s not clear how much the billionaire donated toward the annual race, which raised $750,000 that typically goes toward funding community centers and public spaces.

Entry costs topped off at $50 for the 2024 race, meaning Castro may have at least handed over a Ulysses S. Grant bill.

The race comes four days after a California judge tossed out a lawsuit by Jose Rivera that alleged Castro stole the winning ticket from him back in 2022.

The judge ruled that “players are solely responsible for securing their tickets against theft, loss, damage, or destruction.”

It means Castro no longer has to fight to prove he is the rightful owner of the jackpot, the biggest in US history.

Castro nabbed the life-changing jackpot in November 2022, and opted for the lump sum payout of $997.7 million.

Gov.Gavin Newsom is hoping his latest round of homeless encampment resolution funding will not just help clear the state’s sidewalks — but also hold cities and counties more accountable for making it happen.

Newsom on Friday doled out $130.7 million to 12 cities and six counties, aiming to clear homeless encampments and provide shelter, care and support. Among the recipients are Riverside and San Bernardino counties, Pasadena and Los Angeles cities, but missing this round was Los Angeles County.

Newsom said L.A. County’s absence is not an oversight, nor is it a political maneuver.

“A disproportionate share has gone to L.A. City and L.A. County, as well as their C.O.C. (Continuum of Care), so they’ve been well resourced,” Newsom said. “It’s not intentional. I wouldn’t read between the lines.”

L.A. County received $51 million of homelessness funding from the state in May.

Newsom said so far, the state’s $1 billion encampment resolution program has doled out more than $737 million to clear encampments across California.

As part of this latest round of funding, Newsom said he’s also stepped up accountability measures and promised to claw back funding if the cities or counties fail to meet the requirements. The new standards, he said, are essential to reduce encampments and reclaim California’s public spaces.

“We need to re-democratize our streets and do it in a compassionate way, with our values intact, support the people who are out there and the underlying causes,” Newsom said. “But, we need to take back the streets.”

Newsom said the encampment resolution program is working. Since July, 991 encampments have been removed and more than 12,000 have been removed over the past three years.
