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.

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.

The biggest race of the year is only four months away.

Preparations for the annual Race the Reserve (which goes off Aug. 13) are underway and event organizers are looking for runners and potential sponsors.

The event, which features a half-marathon, 10K and 5K, benefits the following school year’s senior class at Coupeville High School.

In this case, that would be the Class of 2017, which will get a safe and sober graduation night celebration out of the event.

The races, which are run through Ebey’s Landing National Historical Reserve on Whidbey Island, offer runners “panoramic views of the Olympic Mountains, the Strait of Juan de Fuca, Mt. Rainier and Mt. Baker.”

Cost is $30 (5K), $40 (10K) and $60 (half-marathon) and you can register online this very moment by jumping over to:

If you or your business are interested in becoming a sponsor, contact Race the Reserve via its Facebook page:

Donations can also be sent to:

CMS track coach Elizabeth Bitting rolls to the best performance in the half marathon by a female runner from Coupeville. (John Fisken photos)

Jon Crimmins, Coupeville’s top male finisher in the half marathon.

Sarah Chombeau leads all local runners in the 10K.

Hot on her heels, Daniel Verble notched the top male performance in the 10K by a Coupeville male runner.

Olivia Flack can not be caught in the 5K.

Samuel Wynn (338) and James Wood are neck-and-neck coming down the stretch in the 5K.

Gabe and Jyotica Barrio, out for a father/daughter run.

Sherry Roberts (left) and Tammy Smith head home.

Debra Savalza nears the finish line with a flourish.

Gone with the wind.

Not that there was too much wind on a sunny, sizzlin’ August day, but local runners competing in the annual Race the Reserve Saturday were flying along.

The photos above, which come to us courtesy John Fisken, capture a slice of Coupeville’s best and brightest as they waged war against the clock and their own inner will.
