Distance runners will take over the city's streets and trails for Sunday's Anchorage Runfest, but Saturday belonged to runners whose times were measured in minutes, not hours.
Jake Moe posted a record time in the Anchorage Mile, the prelude to Sunday's longer races.
Moe finished the flat course along the Delaney Park Strip in 4 minutes, 24 seconds, to shave one second off the 2013 record set by Isaac Lammers.
Jason Coupe finished in 4:27 to place second. He and Moe were among six men who broke the five-minute barrier.
In the women's race, Jess Klain beat Tracie Haan by four seconds with a time of 6:04.
Sunday morning's races — a 49K, a marathon, a half-marathon and a 5K — will put hundreds of runners and walkers on the Coastal Trail and Chester Creek Trail. All of the races begin and end near Town Square on Sixth Ave. and F Street.
