A local politician is claiming he finished the '82 race in 2 hours 16
minutes, where can I find the listed results? I've tried the normal websites
but they don't go back that far.
Thanks

Terry Baker or Rick Callison?

86th Boston Marathon - Monday, April 19, 1982
One of the most memorable duels in the history of Boston was waged on a
sun-scorched afternoon in 1982. Wayland resident Alberto Salazar and
Minnesota dairy farmer [censored] Beardsley fought one another over the
nine-mile stretch from the Newton hills to the finish. Beardsley did the
front-running with Salazar tucked in behind, during their record pace.
With less than one mile remaining, Salazar moved to the front. A sprint
finish ensued, and Salazar emerged victorious in 2:08:52, with Beardsley
just two seconds back (2:08:54), marking the first time two runners had
broken 2:09:00 in the same race. West German Charlotte Teske easily won
the women's race with a comfortable 2:29:33, to finish nearly seven
minutes ahead of Canada's Jacqueline Gareau.

Baker. I just wanted to be sure no one was claiming something they didn't
do, I have the highest respect for anyone who even finished Boston much less
had a time like that!
