The Homer Epic 50- and 100-kilometer races were held Saturday, starting in Homer, going into the Caribou Hills, then returning to Homer.
Competitors can choose to bike, run or ski.
Men’s winners for 100 kilometers were Robert Whitney on skis at 7 hours, 1 minute; Brian Bonney on the bike at 7:47 and Michele Baschieri on foot at 23:21.
Women’s winners for 100 kilometers were Tara Schmidt on skis at 10:10 and Jessie Goodrich on bike at 18:47.
Men’s winners for 50 kilometers were Frederick Dickerson on skis at 3:10, Mike Crawford on the bike at 3:34 and Timi Lemaire on foot at 6:41.
Women’s winners for 50 kilometers were Katie Miller on skis at 4:25, Amber Bethe on bike at 4:10 and Erin McKittrick on foot at 6:16. The softer course led to Bethe being the only overall winner that used a bike and not skis.
