As Goob rolled into the parking lot around 5:05am, numerous vehicles were already vacated as PAX were out and about.  At 5:15am, Goob went through the 5 core principles and implored all PAX to follow him to the fountain.  When we arrived at the fountain in the center, Ripken proclaimed that the “fountain” was merely a center piece with a tree in it.  Unfazed, Goob stuck to his guns and stole Enron’s Fartlek run.  PAX were to partner up with one man running north around the circle while the other ran south.  When they met their partner, they were to sprint until they saw each other again.  Then recovery pace until the next meet up, then sprint, etc.

At the end of the Fartlek circles and back at the FOUNTAIN, with Spinal Tap as my witness, water was indeed flowing through it.  Thereby, shut it Ripken, it is a fountain.

Newman did his thing on the bridge and the other 11 PAX ran varying distances.
