Adair Park, Juneau December 25th 1982 (Saturday) 12:00AM | Distance: 5 kilometres Location: Adair Park, Juneau A Christmas fun run at Adair Park, won by Guy Thibodeau in 17:00. Nineteen finishers. DATE: the clipping gives none at all - no day, no month, only the results. 25 December is used because it is the holiday the race is named for and it fell on a Saturday in 1982, but the race could as easily have been held the weekend before. This is the least certain date on any event added from this batch of clippings. Karen Paulick's time is printed "28:3", one digit short; a zero is supplied to give 28:30, which sits correctly between the runners either side of her.

University of Alaska Juneau parking lot December 4th 1982 (Saturday) 11:00AM | Distance: 5 miles Location: the University of Alaska Juneau parking lot Start Time: 11:00 AM Registration Fee: 5 dollars The second annual Frostbite Run, sponsored by the Zach Gordon Teen Club - the same club that ran the Great Pumpkin Race. Glenn Frick was the first man across the line and Joanie Wahto was the women's winner. ONLY THE TWO WINNERS ARE RECORDED. The Empire printed no results list, just a photograph of runners in the snow and a caption naming them - along with a dog, which the caption notes was not eligible. Neither winner's time was printed either. (2 records) | DefaultRaceDirector Unassigned leg+:no club:yes cup:no results: yes pics:no |
Juneau November 13th 1982 (Saturday) 12:00AM | Distance: 10 kilometres (6.2 miles) Location: Juneau THE FIRST Veteran's Day 10K Fun Run, put on by Juneau Parks and Recreation, who used the Empire to "thank the following runners for their participation" - which is how the twenty names below come to be recorded at all. Kelly Miller was quickest in 33:59. DATE: the report gives none. Veterans Day 1982 fell on a Thursday, and every later running of this race on the site is on a Saturday, so the Saturday of that week is used. It is an inference from the pattern.

Juneau October 31st 1982 (Sunday) 12:00AM | Location: Juneau The second annual Zach Gordon Teen Club Great Pumpkin Race. Kelly Miller won in 15:30 from Shawn Johns, who had won the first running the year before. Seventeen finishers are listed, in four categories; the Empire gives no total, so this may be the whole field. DATE: the report prints none. 31 October is used because the race is named for Halloween and the first running was held on it. That is an inference from the name and not something the paper states. DISTANCE: not printed either. The first running in 1981 was 2.6 miles, and nothing in this report says the course was unchanged, so no distance is recorded here.

Capitol Building to the Tlingit Haida Community Center, Salmon Creek, Juneau July 10th 1982 (Saturday) 9:00AM | Distance: 3 miles Location: start at the Capitol Building, finish at the Tlingit Haida Community Center near Salmon Creek Start Time: 9:00 AM Registration Fee: 5 dollars The Governor's Cup Fun Run, sponsored by the Juneau City-Borough Parks and Recreation Department. 477 runners registered and the Empire printed placings to 435. Guy Thibodeau was first across the finish line in 15:15. The advert says runners would "follow the same course as last year", so there was a 1981 running; the first 450 to register were promised T-shirts. THE RESULTS ARE INCOMPLETE AND THE PAPER SAYS SO. The caption to the photograph of the start ends: the Parks and Recreation Department "this year didn't compile complete race results. Parks and Recreation is emphasizing the fun in the run." Nine place numbers are simply not printed - 63, 65, 68, 80, 165, 166, 181, 184 and 200 - leaving 426 lines, of which eleven read "No tag" or "No number" and name nobody. Those eleven are not imported; 415 named finishers are. Several runners appear as an initial and a surname, or a surname alone, exactly as printed. Five printed times run backwards against the finish order and are stored as printed, each with a note on its row. No distance is printed in the 1982 clippings, and the course map carries no scale. It is three miles on the authority of the year before: the advert says runners would "follow the same course as last year", and the Empire of 13 July 1981 reports Paul Pusich leading "the field of 405 runners for almost the entire three-mile distance" from the Capitol Building to the Tlingit and Haida Center. The 1986 running, recorded here from a separate clipping, gives three miles from the same start. (415 records) | DefaultRaceDirector Unassigned leg+:no club:yes cup:no results: yes pics:no |
Douglas Bridge to the Douglas firehall, Juneau July 4th 1982 (Sunday) 12:00AM | Distance: 2 miles Location: the Douglas side of the bridge to the Douglas firehall The annual Fourth of July race. Guy Thibodeau won in 9:26, leading what the Empire called "a pack of 85 other runners". Steve Schmitz, who had earlier set a course record of 9:22, was second in 9:29 with Art Rodriguez on his heels in 9:30. Susie Norvell was the fastest woman in 12:09, from Ann Boochever and Michelle Robitaille. Eighty-one runners are named: the top three of each of eight age and sex divisions, and then a list headed "other runners and times". That is five short of the 86 the report implies, so a few finishers were not printed. Robert Cesar appears in both parts of the list with two different times, 13:18 in Men up to 15 and 11:44 among the others. The divisional time is the one stored and his row records the other.

University of Alaska Juneau campus, Auke Lake May 8th 1982 (Saturday) 9:00AM | Distance: 10 miles Location: the University of Alaska Juneau parking lot, south around the Loop Road and back Start Time: 9:00 AM Registration Fee: 1 dollar, plus a sponsor pledging at least 50 cents a mile The sixth Magnificent Mendenhall Mudpuddle Meet, sponsored by Juneau Parks and Recreation, the University of Alaska Juneau and Special Olympics. The Empire headlined it "Race draws 102 runners"; 98 are listed as finishing. Art Rodriguez was quickest overall in 53:38. THE RACE MOVED TO A SATURDAY this year, having been run on a Sunday since 1977. All three accounts say so, including the caption to the photograph of the start. DATE: none of the four Empire items prints one, only "Saturday". The meet had been held on the first or second weekend of May every year - 1 May 1977, 30 April 1978, 6 May 1979, 4 May 1980, 10 May 1981 - and 8 May 1982 is the second Saturday. That is an inference from the pattern and not something the paper states. Times are printed as minutes and seconds, with the minutes running past sixty, and are converted here. Joe Malinovsky's is damaged in the printing and noted on his row. John Ebona, who the Empire notes is handicapped, finished six miles of the ten-mile course. Welles Gabier is filed under Women over 40 in the paper. He is the man who ran the 1979, 1980 and 1981 meets in the mens brackets, and his result is held on his own record.

Fish Creek, North Douglas to the Tlingit Haida Community Center, Salmon Creek, Juneau May 1st 1982 (Saturday) 4:00PM | Distance: 7.9 miles, point to point Location: start at Fish Creek on North Douglas, finish at the Tlingit Haida Community Center by Salmon Creek Start Time: 4:00 PM, one minute before low tide Registration Fee: 4 dollars, including admission to the Queen Ida concert The second annual May Day Mud Race, run on a 1.2 foot tide the Empire called "slightly more challenging than last year's minus one inch tide". Runners took off from Fish Creek, crossed the flats near the runway and followed the old highway to the finish. The Habitat Division of the Department of Environmental Conservation supervised the course to avoid damage to the wildlife. Art Rodriguez won in 46:42, seventeen seconds ahead of Phil Peck. Mary Hakala took the women's open division in 57:31. Forty-three finishers are listed, in six divisions. Margaret Levitt was last in 1:42:42 and was given a 25 dollar gift certificate for it. Over 300 dollars of prizes were put up by Juneau businesses, down to a lunch for two in the junior division. Festivities afterwards were at the National Guard Armory: a gumbo dinner at 7:00 PM and a concert by Queen Ida, a Cajun band from Louisiana, at 9:00 PM. The course ran Fish Creek to Salmon Creek this year. By the fourth annual in 1984 it was being run in the opposite direction over the same 7.9 miles. Times are printed as minutes and seconds, with the minutes running past sixty, and are converted here. (43 records) | DefaultRaceDirector Unassigned leg+:no club:yes cup:no results: yes pics:no |
