- BLUE SKIES, MODERATE temperatures and bright sun lit up the roads of Middlebury and Weybridge on Sunday morning for the 375 athletes who took part in the annual Middlebury Maple Run. Vermont’s “Sweetest Half-Marathon” featured runners from around New England, the Northeast and further afield — plus there was a strong contingent of Middlebury College students (and maybe a few professors?) loping through the 13.1-mile feature event or the 5K and 10K race options. Volunteers, like those below right from the Middlebury Union Middle School cross country team, helped distribute water, direct traffic, encourage participants, and then handed out bottles of maple syrup at the finish line. Start training now for next year’s race. Independent photo/John S. McCright

- SOMETHING IS UP with the nose of Hinoto Tanaka, a sophomore at Middlebury College, after he took a drink at a Morgan Horse Farm Road water station early in Sunday’s Middlebury Maple Run. It didn’t seem to bother the 19-year-old, who ran 6:50 per mile and finished 8th overall in 1:29:23 for the 13.1-mile course. Independent photo/John S. McCright
