Connecticut’s towns have some great names, and it seems to me Bozrah is right up there near the top. Bozrah is noted as an elusive town according to the club, so I was happy to be able to knock this one out. It was a nice little town run, starting and finishing at the fire station, and running out to a cul-de-sac in a business park before heading back in. I tried catching some of the people I was running with, but just wasn’t feeling it today, and got the sense that the town’s cross-country team was out in force, with a lot of fast kids in the race.

After we finished, the race officials made an announcement explaining that if people had to get on to their next race, their awards would be held for pickup later. I had never heard of the town of Lisbon, but it seemed like a lot of people were heading there, so I looked up the race schedule (starts in a half hour) and the map (12 minutes away) and decided to go for it. I’d down two races in a weekend before, but never two in a day.
