  • Then there was 2 – from Bongo

    Despite the manly Broga going on at eh Children’s museum, gaining say 10 pounds on last weeks vacation ain’t coming off in the beatdown, so I needed to create my own with no place to hide during it. Fracsac was there for the ride too. Here is what happened:

    SSHX 20
    Peter Parker — 15
    MC -15
    Arm Circles 10 each
    5 burpees

    Off to planters by lake front, the circle of benches too wet and other residents I did not want to bother….
    10 dips at each planter run back to start line X 4

    11 on the levee at Canal blvd. Squats and Burpees with Burpees counting up

    House of Pain (3) stations — Bernie Sanders up levee for counter. Smell of rotting crawfish stayed with me for the day….

    Back for some Mary

    LBCs X 20
    Flutter kicks X 20
    Hold Plank 1:00 minute

    COT between 2 as we pray for our career directions with our mutual employer.

    Still a long way to go and diet changes.
    See you in the gloom and on the radio

  • Good Morning……Burpees – from Fracsac

    It’s been a long time since YHC visited the 610 Stomp. Good morning burpees needed to make an appearance during Frac Week, and the Stomp was just the place to make it happen. Rules are simple, stay as a group and say Good Morning to everyone we see. A Good Morning reply is 5 burpees, no reply is 10 burpees and harassing a pedestrian is 15 burpees. YHC was the only one that came close to harassing a paddle boarder, that’s not technically a pedestrian.
    3.5 miles and 100 burpees later we met up for the COT.

    Fun times!!

    NMM

    Come on out to the Foundry for the final appearance from BayWatch before he moves.

    RevSox was especially fond of the Burpees, even more so than Bongo.
    Hawgcycle is even going to have Breadsticks print some shirts commemorating this iconic event.

    Frac Week continues…..

  • The 210 Stomp – from Rudy

    Its Twos-Day, 2/22/2022. As promised, a new route led to an easter egg on the Strava map (yes, a 2 mile out-and-back that formed a 2). And what better way to celebrate than by running in my tutu… Thanks High Rise for pacing and pushing me!

    And congrats to the Half Marathoners (Snooze, Kuch, Saban) who have really been pushing themselves through the Run Cajun Run!

     

  • Krazy Ivan IV: Speedy Sings, Fracsac Frowns – from The Hammer

    It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness, it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity, it was the season of light, it was the season of darkness, it was the spring of hope, it was the winter of despair…for Fracsac apparently. The man who has a folder on his phone dedicated to the Freedom Hammer was crestfallen for a second year running. Bordering on tearful, Fracsac and his Southshore breathern had to witness a spritely Speedy Gonzales hoist the Freedom Hammer in triumph after the Northshore thumped the Southshore for the Crazy Ivan IV, 257 to 153. Precision results, thoroughly vetted and audited by the governing body, are as follows:

    1. Speedy Gonzales 31:22 (6:30 average pace)-recruited years ago by Jose 10k
    2. Amnesia 33:55
    3. In Time 34:07
    3. Cowbell 34:07
    5. The Hammer 34:34
    6. Saban 35:09
    7. Kuch 35:37
    8. Steve 36:45
    9. TankedUp! 37:20
    10. RevSox 37:36
    11. Sogo 37:47
    12. Hog’s Breath 40:25
    13. Thumb War 41:30
    14. Bongo (time between 41:30 and 42:43-you should have found me afterwards Bongo!)
    15. Snooze 42:43
    16. Pelican 42:44
    17. Shooter 43:34
    18. Flea 45:16
    19. BBQ 46.35
    20. Russo 46:55
    21. Jose 10k 47:38
    22. Pai Gow 49:55
    23. Baywatch (it was raining hard, lots was happening, Hog’s Breath was talking to me…sorry Baywatch I didn’t get your time)
    24. Belloq
    25. JV (not that JV, the other one) 55:19
    26. Kenner Brah
    27. McGiver

    And honorable mentions to PickAxe and Chainsaw, The Hammer’s 2.0s, who finished the first lap together in a blistering 13 minutes.

    Thanks for coming out guys. You all get a trophy for participating in this unequivocally, completely stupid and utterly pointless annual competition. YHC was thoroughly impressed with the total disregard for your personal wellbeing and safety and looks forward to a repeat performance same time next year. Over and out.
