Fast Women

Abby Mahoney was the women’s winner last weekend at the Western Mass Athletic Club (WMAC) snowshoe series race at Prospect Mountain.  With her victory Abby has now won more WMAC snowshoe races than anyone in the history of the series.  The WMAC series started in February of 1998 and has had 183 races since then.  In the 17 seasons of racing over 12,000 finishers have been recorded.  The runners with the five most wins are listed below.  Check out my blog for the complete list of all winners (68 different winners in 182 races).   There are some incredible athletes on this list including a number of national champions.

Great stat keeping, DD! Thanks for posting the list! Of course now I'm curious about the men's list. My guess is your name up top with Paul Low maybe in 2nd? JJ used to do a lot of these races too, he might be up there? Richard Bolt also?

Please post!
