As was often the tradition, runners who ran the Bermuda 10KM would go for
a run on the marathon route the next day, during the race. Here are Eddie

The year before he won the Around The Bay Race, Joe Sax finished second
to Mike Dyon in 1980. Here he is with that look on his face - relief, pain,
and maybe a hint of disappointment, as he reaches the finish of the 19.1
mile route.
