16 bright eyed and bushy tailed pax showed up promptly at 5:28, and off we went…
The Thang:
Mosey across Magazine to the field for warm up
- SSH x 20
- Squats x 20
- Mountain climbers x 20
- Imperial walker x20
Mosey past the Zoo and over to the levee for 11s
- Diamonds at the top
- Squats at the bottom
Plank to gather the 6 then continue our mosey into the rarely-explored darkness of the Fly.
Mosey along by the river to a dimly lit gazebo of sorts (trying to keep the pax together here…):
- 15x dips
- 10x derkins
I hear a train a-comin’…
Continue into the darkness towards the baseball fields…locked! Doh! Audible to the benches at the adjacent playground:
- Dips x15
- Derkins x10
- Step ups x20
- Dips x 15
- Derkins x10
Freight train has passed, so our path is clear back into the soft, welcoming gloom on the right side of the Levee.
Mosey across the tracks, past the stables to the Avenue of the Oaks (is that what you all call it)?
- Mary: Dolly > LBC > Russian twist > Protractor
- Merkins, Plank jacks
- Then 50 LBCs OYO to close it out.
Back to virtual shovel flag for namerama and take out
Musings:
Since moving to New Orleans this summer, I’ve enjoyed posting and meeting the fine men of F3NOLA and I greatly appreciate the warm (hot and sweaty AF) welcome you all have provided me. However, this being my F3 NOLA VQ, I felt some mileage befitting my F3Metro roots was in order. I love the boot-camp beat-downs delivered week in and week out around here and I’m feeling the results, but it’s good to stretch the hammies out every once in a while. I think we got in 3.2 miles on Monday plus around 100 push-ups variants (merkins/derkins/diamonds), which was a good down painment on the week.
Thanks for the opportunity to lead, and thank god that freight train finally passed…
