Start Slow and Taper, Twin Power Edition, a team of runners from Myrtle Point, Coquille and North Bend, captured the title in the recent Roseburg to Coos Bay Relay.
The South Coast Running Club event is a fundraiser for Camp Millennium, which provides a summer camp experience for children living with cancer.
The winning squad included Karl Smith and twins Aidan and Damian Lilienthal of Myrtle Point, John Gunther of Coquille and Lawrence Cheal of North Bend. Smith is Myrtle Point’s cross country coach and the twins ran for him before moving on to Oregon State University, where they both are studying engineering.
Their winning time for the 68-mile relay was 8 hours, 22 minutes and 48 seconds.
They finished just over eight minutes ahead of a U.S. Coast Guard squad named Minivan Mavericks that included Zach Winfree, Daniel Carrazedo, Grayson Richey, Derek Madrigal and Samuel Wertheimer.
Third place went to 9-Run-Run, a group including Jordan Osborne, Gabe Shorb, Jeremy Potter, Sean Arrington and Luke Rector, which finished in just under 9 hours.
The top coed team was The Dominators, which finishing fourth overall in 9:11:11 and included Tim Hyatt, Dan Fiorvanti, Kelliann Hitner, Emily Reinig and Zach Reinig.
The top female squad was See Spot Run, a group that included Danielle Jensen, Jenn Anderson, Laura Lui, Colleen Holland and Carol Aron. That group also won the annual spirit award, voted on by the other teams, a regular feat for the squad.
The Director’s Award, which goes to the team that finishes closest to the director’s predicted time based on time estimates provided by the runners, went to the team Scurvy Dogs. That squad, a coed group with Joe Bollig III, Jenny McGriff, Korrinne Ross, Kiah Smith and Jason Richardson, amazingly was just 16 seconds off the projected time.
The top team in the Laverne Park to Coos Bay Walk Relay was the Wooo Crew. The group of Jeff Landry, Trent Mehl, Tom Williams and Doug LaTulip finished in 5 hours, 30 minutes and 47 seconds.
