It’s been threatening rain all week. And the forecast for Thursday evening’s F2 beatdown was no different, with a 60-70% chance as of that morning. YHC seriously envisioned 10k and I sitting under the gazebo drinking alone (he his bud light tallboys, me my overpriced hipster beer), while 10k grumbled …
Bushwacker said “if you build it, they will come”. I needed an ao during the week that I could attend once work started again. So with the guidance of my F3 brothers, a Friday beat down was born. It had a theme, F3 brings out the best in me, I’m …
Rolled up to Jose10k, Band Camp and Russo waiting to get in the pre miler. Pre-thangers quickly doubled and we moseyed our usual destination to get things going. Arrived back at the AO to a swarm of men awaiting the beatdown, each Wednesday of the last few months has proved …
It was a hot and humid morning. The sun began to rise, and the smell of greatness filled the air ( maybe it was the garbage truck that was passing by). A 13 year old stepped out of the car, nervous, but ready to lead. He started off with side …
While searching for Fartlek’s in prep for the Scramble a few weeks ago, YHC discovered another type of interval that sounded like fun. It would also give us a baseline to track our progression over the year. Today we did the Marine Core Officers Candidate School Fartlek, which is done …
Winners usually write history but, in this case, you’re going to have to hear it from a loser. The 2020 Gnarly Nutria was epic. Torrential rains, flooding streets, Uptown ringers and police park patrols all contributed to an outstanding event. So without further adieu, here are your 2020 results (confirmed …
4 PAX gathered on another hot, humid, gloomy morning with a notable person missing, the Q. Could be part my fault, I did tell Cowbell I’d remind him Sunday – but he reassured me he had it on the calendar. We pressed on nonetheless, with a round robin working the …
It was another hot and muggy one this gloom, but a good turnout with 10 guys ready to sweat it out – including a surprise appearance from Garfield. YHC liked Shooters idea to mix in intervals, and having learned that containing the PAX was not ideal – went with the …
It was supposed to be a Cowbell beatdown. YHC brought gloves, as I imagined it’d likely be something tough… maybe a lazy Dora… maybe a merkin ladder as a warm-up. One of those beatdowns that’s a constant push, no 10 counts, pouring Shooter-eque sweat in the first 5 minutes. No …
While the only water that would be had on this Monday at the Marsh would be experienced in perspiration. This was proven as well when Zoolander attempted to grab a swig from the water fountain to no avail. The city apparently feels the basketball court can open, but bring your …
