Naked Pumpkin Runners Offered Plea Deal

The Naked Pumpkin Runners of Boulder, Colorado (see Carnival of Running #4 for details), are being offered a plea deal that involves unsupervised probation and community service - much better than registering as a sex offender, a penalty for the crime for which they have been charged.

Since only 12 of the couple of hundred runners were arrested and charged, it appears additional speedwork is required to stay one step ahead of the police. A training program featuring Naked Pumpkin fartleks or strides would seem to be in order. I would discourage skips and butt kicks, however.
