More State Chasing

It all started innocently enough as is often the case. I went to the Boston Athletic Association website to figure out which Monday in April is Patriots Day. The thought/plan in its early stages was to try and locate a 1/2 Boston weekend in nearby Rhode Island and/or Connecticut in order to check off a state while experiencing the Boston Marathon. No such luck. However, while at the Boston site, I noticed that the Boston 1/2 is the BAA's next event; cool thoughts of Boston in October entered my mind. The Boston event lines up perfectly with the ING Hartford marathon/1/2; more coolness in October up north. I was sold reading Hartford FAQ's about possibly needing gloves race day morning. So unless I come to my senses before Boston registration opens Wednesday morning, I will most likely be doing my 3rd back to back Northeast states this fall. It's gotta be good training for the Goofy Challenge right?
