“And this is what ye have shipped for, men! to chase that white whale on both sides of land, and over all sides of earth, till he spouts black blood and rolls fin out. What say ye, men, will ye splice hands on it, now? I think ye do look …
El wire stepped up for Landing Strip who damaged his “wrist” doing whatever Landing Strip does in his free time. Probably burpees. Probably. Warm up SSH and some other things. Ran to Monkey Hill. Did some backwards bear crawls. Also did a variation of douilles – instant classic the levee. …
“Summertime, and the livin’ is easy … One of these mornings you’re gonna rise up singing And you’ll spread your wings and you’ll take to the sky.” — Bess thinking of Porgy But not this morning. It felt like summertime had returned with a vengeance: hot, sticky and no breeze. …

Yet another delightful New Orleans fall morning: 75 degrees and 100% humidity. I love fall in the south. YHC had arrived at Rock City early to embark upon a northshore-inspired pre-thang run AND to scout out the planned Q. Alas – the gates to the football field were chained and …

“The only bad workout is the one you didn’t do” – Author unknown Another strong turnout with the PAX this Saturday. T-claps to Worms for EH-ing a FNG and also to Coxswain for bringing his pops. T-claps to Rudy for a pre-thang mosey along with joining us for a COP …
