| History |
The Lena Loop Run and Kids' Kilometer, Saturday 25 May 1991, at the Lena Beach picnic area. Warm weather, a challenging pair of courses and the promise of a picnic drew a field the Empire put at 130 runners aged 4 to 62. Mostly youngsters took the kilometre, with 12-year-old Travis Zangri leading the boys in 3:28 and Rose Koch, also 12, the girls in 3:50 - sixth overall. 54 ran it. A field of 75 challenged the hilly 5-K, which loops around Lena Point and returns to the picnic area by Glacier Highway. Rick Thibodeau edged Frank Young by 36 seconds to win in 16:10, from John McConnochie in 17:07. Susan Mellow was the fastest woman in 21:48, with Sue Scott second in 22:15 and Margaret Fiege third in 22:18. A handful of runners took on both races. Travis Zangri, Skye Stekoll, Asher Hall and Elmer Ignell each appear in both lists here. SOURCES: "130 tackle Lena Loop", Juneau Empire, Tuesday 28 May 1991, page 9, with a photograph by Richard F. Schmitz of the Kids' Kilometer, continuing on page 10 with both finish lists. NOTES ON THE LIST. The kilometre's 54 match the report exactly. The 5-K list holds 74, numbered 1 to 74 with no gap, against a stated field of 75 - so unlike some other lists here there is nothing to say who is missing, and the extra entrant may simply not have finished. Linda Giguere's surname is printed two different ways within this one event, as Gaguere in the kilometre and Giguere in the 5-K; both rows say so. Susan Mellow appears here under a third spelling of a name the archive holds as Sue Mello, following the Empire's own correction of its 1990 Mudpuddle results. |
