Infants were at some relay handoffs, sometimes not visible, especially in team Babes With Babies.

“I’m not one of the babies, I’m one of the babes,” team member Zane Jones, 43, said in jest as he waited for his leg two runner to reach the Auke Rec handoff point. “We have done the race in the past and it is just a fun race and we wanted to not let the moss grow on us…The babies are all sleeping in the cars right now.”

The team included Casey Hampton, 36, Ashlynn Antoni, 39, and Madeline Kombrink (age not given) and Britt Tonnessen, 42, who crossed the finish with the team’s 3:12:08 10th-place time.

For the most part, fans also participated in some form, c level contact listwith drivers honking car horns and cheers of encouragement. Toddlers explored the surrounding route until their favorite runner approached.

True to their name, The Stragglers, were a late Saturday entry before the deadline.

“Well, Eric (Antrim) needed a team,” Therese Pokorney, 26, said. “And so I had emailed Heather asking if anyone wanted to run that doesn’t have a team and she said Eric and I convinced him to do it. And we finally signed up last night.”

Antrim, 52, crossed the finish at 2:55:19 and The Stragglers, including Tim Mikulski, 26, placed sixth overall.
