PINKHAM NOTCH — After canceling in 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the historic 60th Northeast Delta Dental Mount Washington Road Race is moving forward this year — albeit at bit different than previous years as it will be run over two days — and the field is starting to solidify.

The talent in the women’s race, which will be running on their own on Saturday, June 19, is deep. The big question in the men’s race, being held Sunday, June 20, is whether four-time winner Joseph Gray will be coming back. Gray, a four-time winner at Mount Washington and two-time World Mountain Running champion, is expected to make a decision in the next month.
