Geocache Description:

Lots of people are coming to Richmond to participate in either 8k, half, or full marathon events... there's even a small (but enthusiastic!) group of us who actually geocache AND run aka geo-runners... so let's see how many people we can get-together for the first ever mara-phoon event (details below).


mar·a·phoon
/ˈmarəˌ fo͞on/

1. an endurance event, specifically holding the phoon position for at least 2.622 minutes (157.32s)


Schedule of Events

17:45 - 17:59
Best as you can, act like a muggle, pretend not to know each other or give any indication that something is about to happen. At 17:59 slowly begin to move towards ground zero.

18:00
Gather at ground zero and begin mara-phooning aka we'll see who can hold the position the longest :-)

18:13
Regardless of the mara-phoon results, we'll take a group photo in the phoon position.

18:15
Leave the area like nothing happened. We can meet up post event close by to discuss the phooning around (location to be determined).



How to Phoon:


* Stand sideways to the camera. (A Phoon is always viewed from the side.)
* Bend your arms at the elbows. (Look like an athletic runner, not a ballerina.)
* Lift your rear elbow (not your hand) so that it is easy to see behind your back.
* Lean forward at the waist. This will help you look more energetic and will help you lift your rear ankle.
* When possible, do not look at the camera and do not smile.
* Either arm can be the rear arm. Either leg can be the rear leg.
