Geocache Description:

Lots of people are coming to Akron to run the infamous blue line... there's even a small (but enthusiastic!) group of us who are in town to both run AND geocache. But for those of you that would rather sleep-in on Saturday, come for what I believe to be the area's 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

17:15 - 17:29
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 17:29 begin to move towards ground zero.

17:30
Gather at ground zero and start phooning around-- be you a first-time phooner, interested in completing the mara-phoon challenge, or just want to watch the silliness-- ALL ARE WELCOME!!!

17:43

17:45
Leave the area like nothing happened. We can meet up post event close by to discuss the phooning around but not for too long, some of us have to run tomorrow!


How to Phoon:


* Stand sideways. (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.

Additional Hints (No hints available.)
