Nearly 1,600 runners put shoe to pavement Sunday during the big four races at the Whidbey Island Marathon.

And, with apologies to Susanna Orr of Anchorage, Alaska and everyone else from far-flung locales, the race itself will have to be your reward, because I’m not printing all your names here.

Well, Miss Orr obviously made it … but you get my point.

The names below belong to those who openly claimed Coupeville as their hometown (since this is Coupeville Sports and not Anchorage Running Times).

Or, in a couple of cases, folks who tried to slip through by just putting US under hometown but had recognizable names.

Nice try, Sage Renninger, nice try.

Anyway, if I missed you, it’s either because you hid under a “fake” hometown or I’m just blind. One of the two…

The biggest race of the year just got bigger.

The annual Race the Reserve, which brings tons of runners to Central Whidbey and raises funds for that year’s graduating class at Coupeville High School, is entering new territory.

After previously offering a 5K, 10K and half marathon, the event is taking a huge leap forward and adding a full marathon and a marathon relay in 2017.

While full details are still in the works, Deb Smith, the driving force behind the ’17 race, which is set for Aug. 12, is already positively giddy.

“It’s gonna be incredible!!,” she gushed, before departing to take one of her football-playing sons to the hospital for a concussion check-up.

Registration is already open and you can nab an early bird discount if you get your paperwork out of the way before Dec. 31.

To register, to find out more about Race the Reserve, or to keep an eye on news of the marathon and marathon relay, your place to camp out is:

Two worlds collided today and everyone was just fine with it.

Athletes of all sizes and shapes hit the new track at Coupeville High School for a 5K Tutu Fun Run to support Whidbey Island Dance Theatre’s annual production of The Nutcracker.

The photos above, which come to us thanks to Emili Marrs, capture three Wolf soccer/basketball stars ready to rumble while dressed for success.

Unleash the air horns of doom.

They came, they saw, they ran the heck out of the course.

Coupeville High School’s annual Race the Reserve drew in 275 runners (and one wildly-snapping paparazzi) Saturday, helping raise bucks to fund graduation night festivities for the Class of 2017.

Wolf alum Andre Stone zipped to a win in the 5K, crossing the finish line in 17 minutes, 5.06 seconds, while Singh Navdeep (45:32.5) and Ryan Prachnau (1:19:56.3) took home titles in the 10K and half marathon respectively.

Along for the run, camera in hand, was intrepid clicker John Fisken, who was nice enough to provide us with the photos above.

Do you want to make Jae LeVine happy and save $5?

Then get off your duff and register for Race the Reserve before today is done.

The annual run, a fundraiser for the Coupeville High School Class of 2017 (LeVine is Class Prez), features a half marathon, 10K and 5K and hits the road Aug. 13.

Register online, or postmark your mailed-in entry before Friday fades into Saturday and you’ll save that crisp fiver.

Wait to register in-person on the day of the race and you’ll have to give up five more George Washington’s before you head off to ramble across the prairie.

Cost (through today) is $60 for the half marathon, $40 for the 10K and $30 for the 5K.

With construction on a new track making Mickey Clark Field a no-trespassing zone, the race will start and finish in front of the high school gym this year.
