Arbron
After seeing the hash point was close by, and seeing on the wiki page that there would be others attending, I decided to do something special for this hash. I ran to the store, bought the ingredients, and made a batch of chocolate chip Rice Krispie® Treats. I then proceeded to drive to the hash point and circled a couple of times before realizing what looked like a proper road on Google Maps™ was in fact an alleyway. After parking, I got out and saw [User:thepiguy|Pi] waving at me from the Hashmobile©.

Realizing the hash point was under six kilometres from my home, and on a navigable roadway, I wracked my brains for a creative and original way to arrive there. I checked the garage to see if I'd built a solar-powered hovercraft yet, but it seems I haven't, so I settled on jogging. My heart rate monitor has a GPS in it, but by the time I'd found my keys and my sunglasses I didn't have time to program in the coordinates. No matter, I knew the intersection, and there were going to be multiple people there. I'd just follow them.
The heart monitor screamed at me the whole way. Apparently it's bad to run for thirty minutes with a heart rate over 175 beats per minute. It only got over 180 on the really big hills. Apparently my heart just likes going fast. I'm not sure I took exactly the optimal route, but only a five or ten minutes later than planned I arrived at an intersection where Arbron and pi were competing to photograph my arrival. I had to slow down to Six Million Dollar Man pace (without sound effects) to enable them to properly document it.
