Greylock Road Race
4th series, race #2
When we arrived at 7:45 it was 55
degrees and sunny, very nice! As the race this year was not only a part of this
series, but it was also a part of USATF-NE Mountain Series. Even this early,
getting a good parking spot was challenging. Needless to say, there was a much
larger field than usual!
Berkshire Running Center did another
great job of putting the race on with lots of wonderful volunteers and finish
line pictures…thank you so much!!!
The course follows the paved road on
the North side of the mountain from Williams Reservoir 8 miles to the 3,491’
summit, rising about 2,400 vertical feet.
