Yea, and by my best estimations (but don't know your hiking speed), you'll 
meet in Hangover, NH.  That is of course, if you follow Sloetoes rules and 
don't consume a single beer (and neither do the northbounders) along your 
trek.  According to norm, you're bound to consume atleast one, maybe two per 
town stop (good carbs), but at a 20 mile difference per beer, you're likely 
to throw this whole schedule off.

Best of luck, I feel confident, if Springer is your goal, you'll make it 
regardless of anyone's recommendations.
