 ADAMS, Mass. -- An eight-mile, mostly uphill climb to the the highest point in the commonwealth is enough of a challenge for any runner. For Mount Greylock Regional School senior Rafael Mellow-Bartels, Sunday brought another problem. "I think, for me, the main challenge was just running without anybody around me," Mellow-Bartels said after completing the 48th annual Mount Greylock Road Race. "It was kind of foggy for the last two miles, so I couldn't see anybody. I had my watch, so I knew how far I was, and I knew my pace. But I didn't know where anybody else was. I think that was the challenge for me." Mellow-Bartels may have to get 0 Comments
