Maybe it's different elsewhere in the country, but in New England it has metastasized and become a cancer in local racing. Every poster, every race shirt, every medal looks like shit and looks identical. It has reached the point where there are local races I've been doing for almost a decade that I've just given up on. It's embarrassing to the running community.

Work in Old Town, in my 30s, single, have enough set aside for a solid down payment on a house, but I'm not exactly raking it in. Poking around, it seems like there are decent homes for sale in Howland at way below the prices I'd be paying in Old Town/Orono/Bangor/Brewer.

I'm not much of a social butterfly, commute wouldn't be much different than it is currently (about 25 minutes instead of my current 22). . . . am I crazy to be seriously considering Howland?
