Flashback Thursday! Thanks Hank Pfeifle for posting this race pic from a Kerryman’s Pub Road Race long ago! Great pic! I never realized how deep the fields were back then with so many fast and talented runners. In this race alone, it was awesome to be amongst awesome runners such as Hank Pieifle, Ken Flanders, Danny Paul, Kim Wetlaufer, Ken Lateaurno, Henri Bouchard, Andy Kimball, and Stu Hogan and others. Not sure why I wore red and green as the race was well past Christmas season. lol!

Ed Rice Tells a short history of Terry Fox Run, was to be a onetime event.

Ed Rice
David Colby Young: The runs were first held in 1982, in Bangor, Portland, Augusta and Caribou. Augusta was a one-time only event, which was fitting….because I only expected ALL of them to be one time. The beneficiary was the American Cancer Society…and the rep for the Bangor area found us a wonderful, new and continuing sponsor, Village Subaru (with the late Jack Quirk Sr) which began a 10-year association. There was a one-year break and then Danny Lafayette and the Best Western chain stepped in, and the Bangor run went from 1994-2002. Begun by my wonderful friend, the late, MRHoFer Bob Coughlin, Portland, too, continued the run for several more years into the mid-1980s. The Caribou run, thanks to the legendary Musterd/Aroostook County ace Conrad Walton, evolved from a tribute to Terry Fox to a local young man who lost his life to cancer. Lewiston-Auburn had that one-year tribute in 1984 that you found. It’s the Bangor event, which switched from the cancer society to supporting the breast cancer research trial at Bangor’s Eastern Maine Medical Center where you will find annual events, the first weekend in May…switched to mid-September by 1994 to be in line with annual Terry Fox events all through Canada. In the scrapbooks I kept I have every one of the Bangor articles and summaries…so if there is something specific that you haven’t found, I’m happy to assist. Thank you, David, for this work you are doing!
