Kenneth Jacobsen ran strongly Saturday. (Anna Jacobsen photo)

The summer running season is off to a great start.

Coupeville coaches have been welcoming 15-20 runners, covering high school and middle school athletes, to their runs.

And Saturday CHS sophomore Kenneth Jacobsen showed off his speed, claiming fourth overall, and first in his age group, at the Hustle With the Heroes 5K.

The 15-year-old was hot on the heels of three guys ages 35, 39, and 21, hitting the finish line in 22 minutes, 2.69 seconds.

Jacobsen was almost three minutes faster than any other teenager in the race.

And he wasn’t the only Wolf in the field, as sisters Allie and Annaliese Powers earned 16th and 17th overall among 74 finishers.

The siblings finished in 29:02.59 and 29:02.68, respectively.

Hustle With the Heroes, which started at Coupeville Elementary, featured a who’s-who of Island County first responders.

Represented were the Island County Sheriff’s Department, Oak Harbor Police Department, Washington State Patrol, Langley Police Department, South Whidbey Fire/EMS, Central Whidbey Island Fire and Rescue, North Whidbey Fire and Rescue, Oak Harbor Fire Department, WhidbeyHealth EMS, ICOM 911, and Life Flight Network.

Coupeville’s runners will continue to put in the work as the summer months play out, in anticipation of the return of school sports in the fall.

“Coach (Amber) Wyman and I have some great miles planned for them,” said CHS cross country guru Elizabeth Bitting. “Let summer begin!”

They turned out in force.

Official stats show 277 runners competing Saturday in the annual Race the Reserve, the biggest fundraiser for Coupeville High School’s next graduating class.

The 5K was the most-popular event, attracting 107 competitors.

Meanwhile, the 10K snagged 99 runners, and the half marathon featured 71 people ambling across the prairie.

Two of the day’s three winners have a direction connection to Coupeville Middle and High School cross country.

Andrew Wyman, husband of CMS harrier coach Amber Wyman, claimed the crown in the half marathon.

George Spear, who will be a Wolf sophomore this fall, outran the field to win the 10K, while the 5K title was copped by Levi DeBoard, who seems to have no connection to the Wolf running programs.
