The 11th Sweetheart Relay, put on by Juneau Parks and Recreation for the 11th year running and the first race of the 1993 Empire Cup Runners Series. Conditions were spring-like, mostly dry, with an ice-free running surface. 21 couples ran.
Glenn Frick and Merry Ellefson won in 30:14 from Dawn Rider and Bob Deal in 31:53. Deal had the fastest three mile leg at 17:45, and Ellefson at 18:35 the fastest by a woman and the second fastest of anyone. Frick led the two mile leg in 11:39 from Jay Greiner in 12:48 and Doug Weaver in 12:51, with Margaret Fiege quickest among the women in 13:54.
The Empire's table is headed unofficial and it is one team short. Laura Lee Nelson and Del Stewart are missing from it, but the report printed alongside places them third in 32:46 - Nelson 13:55 for the two miles, Stewart 18:51 for the three - and names them again in its account of each leg. They are included here, which moves every team below second one place down from the printed list.
Leg times are recorded and team times are not, because this site adds the legs up. Dennis and Clare Brooks are the one team whose legs do not reach their printed total, 16:30 and 23:26 against 39:55, so their team time here reads 39:56.
