They came, they saw, they put in some mileage.

The 2026 edition of Race the Reserve lured 350 runners out to the prairie Saturday for a fundraiser devoted to funneling money to Coupeville’s next graduating class.

From out of that pack, 152 competitors participated in the 5K, with 106 hitting the tape in the 10K and 92 more taking on the half marathon.

The top three runners hailed from different towns, with Dylan Kent of Langley claiming top honors in the day’s longest race.

He was joined by Joshua Knight from Longmont, Colorado (10K) and Trenton Mueller of Woodinville (5K) in the winner’s circle, with Coupeville High School runners Cyrus Sparacio and Henry Purdue finishing second in those races.

Overall, Wolf runners nabbed five of the top 10 spots in the two shorter races, with Ossian Merkel, Archer Schwarz, and Colton Ashby also defending their home turf.

Numbers stayed consistent.

The 2024 edition of Race the Reserve featured 273 runners rambling across the prairie Saturday, slightly down from last year’s 277.

The 5K and 10K attracted 100 and 91 runners, respectively, while the half marathon, with 82 competitors, was up 11 from a year ago.

Jarrett Manca won the premier event, hitting the finish line in one hour, 28 minutes, 46.87 seconds, while Cataldo DiDonna (35:49.62) and Galina Free (20:36.45) finished first in the shorter races.

Luke and Maria Summers both ran in the half-marathon Sunday.

Thousands of runners, but we only care about 27 of them.

Sunday’s Whidbey Island Marathon brought a sea of humanity to Deception Pass and outlying areas, but the only way those runners get into this story is if they listed Coupeville as their hometown.

You call Alabama, Oregon, or (shudder) Oak Harbor your place of residence?

Good on you.

Now go start your own blog. It ain’t that hard.

With that said, we present the few, the proud, the Central Whidbey residents who ran in the half-marathon, 10K, or 5K.

As far as I can tell, no one from Coupeville took on the full 26.2-mile main event this time around.
