49th Mount Washington Road Race
by Michael Pelletier
Saturday, June 20, 2009
PINKHAM NOTCH, NH - Last weekend, five Striders competed in the Mount Washington Road Race, a
7-mile torturous run up the highest Mountain in the East.
Layce Alves for several years has split her time between the NS
Striders and Team Gloucester and is a regular on the Team Gloucester Women's
Open Team for Mount Washington. Vicky Yee and Lee Benton were
recruited by Team Gloucester for their Women's Teams for Mount Washington and
were loaned to Team Gloucester for "future considerations." Judging by their
outstanding performances, the future considerations we receive should be quite
lucrative.
In the team competition, running for Team Gloucester, Layce Alves and
Vicky Yee were one and two on the 12th place Women's Open Team. (12/17
teams). Vicky and Lee Benton were one, two respectively on the
Team Gloucester Women's Masters team which finished 10th of 12 teams. Mary
Stevens was the designated driver, bringing Vicky and Lee
safely down the Mountain (The drive down is scarier than the run up) and then
driving them home.

BEVERLY, MA - While lots of Striders volunteered at the Louise Rossetti
5K Race, nine of our best women ran for gold. In addition to fine individual
performances, highlighted by Nancy Wilson's first place finish in her age
group, the Strider women finished 1st in the team
competition, destroying their closest competition, the Greater Derry Track Club, by some 25 minutes.
