Conditions: 70 and light rain
Our curiosity had us gather near some type of Rock ‘n Roll Series race starting at the Peristyle. Triple Shift said it started at 6:30. I think he was trying to get a free t-shirt and some post race pastries. YHC gave a well thought out disclaimer and we headed toward NOMA
The Thang
In the aforementioned disclaimer, YHC had warned the pax that we would attempt to get in some miles and that if a pax member was not interested in running miles they could peel off and join the Muscleship. Apparently the Mothership pax came ready to run.

Hustle back to flag
NMM
- A lot of talk about the blistering 9:30 minute mosey pace we started with. My reputation for speed precedes me.
- BTW was NSFW
- All agreed that the greatness of the football field we used for 10 Rounds of Tyson was well worth the long run to get there (and back).
- Ten Rounds of Tyson was introduced at the F3 NOLA launch by Chung-Li. We did 5 rounds that day I think. To my knowledge this was the first time that the full 10 rounds were completed in NOLA
- I was afraid that some pax might quit on me if I called out burpees for Round 10. The Body Builders were well received.
