I’m always looking for opportunities to get in more pull ups. This was one of those chances. It’s hard to do without an actual pull up bar, but our PAX found a way at the Mandeville Trailhead… The Warm-Up: Mosey 1 block East, 25 IW IC Mosey 2 blocks South, …
Good overall workout… but when the guys first said it could get dark on the Tammany Trace, I really had no idea. The first mosey to the tunnel turned into a walk at some point as we really couldn’t see a single step in front. We got there though, so …
Unfortunately my first Q took a little longer than planned to get documented. Better late than never at least? I’m just glad I got through my technical glitches. OK, here we go… The Warm Up: Stretch straight down for 10, left for 10, right for 10 Mosey 2 blocks East, …
The 23.5 degree tilt of the Earth’s rotational axis with respect to its orbital plane is in part responsible for life as we know it. It is also responsible for the fact that the gloom is getting gloomier these days for the F3 PAX gathering in the Northern Hemisphere (do …

Putting a new foot forward…. Warmup Mosey south on Lafitte St to Monroe St, West to Rusty Pelican at Girod SSH x 20 IC IW x 20 IC Pelican …
Getting up never gets any easier, but seeing the pain on the PAX face after the workout makes it worth climbing out of the fartsack. In typical fashion, Chewy and Burgundy show up a few minutes late for the beat down, but at least they had shoes on. I had …
the THANG: stretchy stuff to warm up the old guys: jumping jacks 20xIC, imperial walkers 20xIC, windmills 20x1C, hillbillys 20x1C the MOSEY: run to the parking garage area, for five loops of: burpees 11xIC, run up the stairs, squats 11xIC, sprint across the parking lot, Tanya Hardings 11xIC (formerly known …
Three veteran PAX made themselves better at the Covington Trailhead this morning while the young guys fartsacked. Blackbird embarked on his Virgin Q with a thorough warmup much appreciated by the geriatric PAX. You know it’s an old guy workout when the Q has trouble reading his Weinke because he …
