Week 6: The Merrimack Valley Striders
(Merrimack Valley - MA / NH)This week's athlete of the week is the entire Merrimack Valley Striders club. The striders won their 2nd consecutive Mill Cities Relay title this weekend and 3rd overall in the 24 year history of the race.
Like last year, MVS fielded a boatload of teams (the most out of any club in the Mill Cities Alliance). With Fernando's strategic placement of runners on specific teams, and the outstanding effort of everyone who raced on this frigid morning, the striders pulled off another great overall win.
