Brad summits Mt. Washington


NBB member Brad Klinedinst climbed 4727 feet over 7.6 miles to finish 29th in the Mt. Washington Road Race. Benefitting from a near-perfect day at the "home of the world's worst weather," Brad quickly left spitting rain and temps in the 50s behind him at the base of the mountain. Averaging 9:44 per mile (fewer than 35 of the 600+ finishers averaged under 10:00 per mile), Brad ran through the cloud layer to emerge at the summit, where he was welcomed by sun, temps in the high 60s, and an appreciative crowd. Congratulations to Brad on his 3rd climb to the top!
