Runners Battle Mist, Mountain in Annual Race

By Stephen DravisiBerkshires.com Sports
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 used to those times when no one can match his pace.
 
On Sunday, he averaged 8 minutes, 41 seconds per mile over the 8-mile course to finish in 1:09.28, good for 10th place overall and first in his group, men 19 and under.
 
The race saw 176 runners post a time, with finishes ranging from just more than an hour to just less than three hours.
