As you can see these are all uphill only races on roads. More info at http://
This will be for the second year of the series. The first year, that ended with the Mt Washington race on June 21, only had three participants: Laurel Shortell, my wife, and me. We are also the only three in the second series, so far, but are hopeful to have some more company next time around! Contact me, Fred Ross, at [email protected], if you have any questions.
