PINKHAM NOTCH — Mount Washington, the home of the world’s worst weather, lived up to its reputation on Saturday morning as the 64th running of the Delta Dental Mount Washington Road Race has to be cut short due to poor conditions.
Temperatures at the Mt. Washington Observatory were registering 34 degrees with rain and wind chill values in the 20s at the start of the race. In order to keep everyone safe, the decision was made to shorten the race to the “half-way” point.
