Description Distance: 10 miles and 6 miles Location: Mendenhall Glacier parking lot Start Time: 9:00 AM Registration Fee: 1 dollar A road run held by Juneau Parks and Recreation. The six mile course ran from the Glacier parking lot to Auke Bay School; the ten mile went along the back Loop Road and finished back at the Glacier. Refreshments afterwards, and a certificate for every finisher. Aimed at occasional joggers as much as at racers. "We want to encourage people who are occasional joggers to come," said coordinator Mary Hakala, a marathon runner who had raced in Europe and at Boston. "It's not so much fun to run alone." The second in a series of summer events organised jointly by the Taku Striders and Juneau Parks and Recreation, and promoted as training for the department's own marathon that July.

10 Mile 10 miles 0 From a Juneau Empire preview of 8 June 1978, which published no results. The CBJ Juneau Marathon on this site is also dated 10 June 1978, while this article puts a road run on that Saturday and the marathon later in the summer. One of the two dates is wrong and neither has been altered to fit the other.
