They came. They saw. They ran all day and night (and then some).
Tons of runners took part in the annual Northwest Passage this weekend, a 200-mile jaunt from the Canadian border at Blaine down to Whidbey Island.
Part of the Ragnar Relay Series, the event drew numerous runners from Coupeville, some of whom are featured in the photos above.
Paced by Coupeville High School sophomores Jacob Smith and Henry Wynn and cheered on by mascot Cheridan Eck, the Wolf Pack overcame the heat and stayed strong until the end.

















































Glad I could be a part of such a fun group of folks. Thanks for the awesome experience. I may be an OHHS grad, but it was fun hanging out with the wolves for a few days. Thanks for the laughs and sleep deprivation. Can’t wait to do it again!!!
Go WILDCATS!!! and TEAM WolfPack
