  • Dirty Mac with Tropicana – from Reluctant Yankee

    Today YHC had a chance to meet and greet one of guys DR from F3 Knoxville. Love the F3 network and its fun to see how this group is connected across the Nation. When we really got moving with this thing 10 years ago next month – it was a perk I didn’t even consider.

    Gathering at the park entrance – early for me – I am usually catching up kind of late. Tropicana had the chance to meet a few PAX.
    Quick disclaimer and off we went.

    Ran to Wolfpack Mtn right away. At the base we did a warmup circle of pain.
    SSH, Imp Walker Squats, Mtn Climbers, and Dying Roach x 20

    Up the stairs to 7. Started our modified DIRTY MACDEUCE.
    Lunges, Plank Jacks, Shoulder Taps, and Backwards lunges x 20
    Down the BOB MARLEY staircase – WEED smell was DANK.
    Up the regular staircase.

    Arrived at FLOOR 6 to avoid the puddles this time.
    Our man from KNOXVILLE stepped up for a COP
    We did BBQ Squats, TIE FIGHTER L/R arm cicles, SLOW 3-PT SQUATS with Toe Touch x 20, and one more that my brain can’t remember
    Tclaps to Tropicana for stepping up to teach us how they do it in Gnarly Knoxville

    Back down Bob Marley staircase and up the regular staircase.

    Arrived at FLOOR 6 again. Notice a cooler weather in the air.
    Backwards lunges, Monkey humpers, Hip Dips and Flutter kicks x 20
    another lap

    Back to FLOOR 6. Down the dank stairs up the regular stairs.
    We did 20 jump squats OYO, 20 hand release merks OYO, Nolan Ryans x 20, and Freddie Mercury x 20
    Down the regular stairs avoiding the Dank Stank stairwell.

    To the benches for Step UPs L/R, and Dips.
    Back to Flag.

    Cool crisp summer moring. Thanks for the opportunity to Q.
    You guys get me up in the AM and I appreciate you.
    Tclaps to Tropicana for joining us!

  • Resist the PSL – from Sea Man

    PSL’s are coming and only a gun show will stop them!

    Mosey around the lot to pickup late arrivals Tube Steak and Willie (of course) and to the field in front of the zoo for standard warm up and Tantric Arm Circles.

    On to the statue for the Dora
    100 Shoulder Taps 2:1
    200 Dips
    300 Inclined Mercs

    Followed it up with Lunge back pedal around the loop while partner did LBCs, LBT to the Right, LBT to the left.

  • Venti 24137 – from Sea Man

    Venti is approaching 1 year! 7 pax sojourned to the river and Starbucks!

  • Wolfpack Mountain 2024-05-30 – from Catfish

    Wolfpack 2024-03-28
    Lovely conditions with a slight chill to the air. Started it up by moseying over to the Tulane lawn for a warmup:
    • Abe Vigodas x 10 (in cadence)
    • Grass Grabbers x 10 (in cadence)
    • Side Straddle Hop x 20 (in cadence)
    • 10 burpees OYO
    • Peter Parkers x 20 (in cadence)
    • Plank Walk x 20 (in cadence)
    • 8-counts x 10 (in cadence)

    Moseyed to the base of the mountain. Lined up for an Indian run to the top. At the top did a Dora 1-2-3 with 100 burpees, 200 jump squats, and 300 flutter kicks (2 is 1). Non-exercising partner ran all the way down the nearby stairwell, across to the other stairwell, and all the way back up. Got in some LBTs, penguins, and Big Boys (all x20 in cadence) while waiting for the six.

    Moseyed back down the stairs to the flag zone. Got in another set of 10 8-counts (in cadence), then went for CoT. Coffee at PJ’s as usual afterwards.

  • March of the Penguins – from Willie

    As the month of March approaches its end, so does the March of the Penguins CASUP (1000 Penguins per day in the month of March). Special shout out to @Sandbar, and @Sogo for accompanying me on this journey. Also, a big thank you to the Qs this month who added extra penguins to their workout. That does not included @Douille who did 3 total penguins at Misty Mountain last Saturday.

    Yours truly rolled into the workout right at 5:30AM, dressed in a Penguin onesie, with Welcome to the Jungle blaring on the bluetooth speaker. My standard music rules applied. The PAX can skip a song with a 10 burpee penalty for the entire group. After the standard disclaimer, we moseyed to the field for a warm up, all in cadence.

    SSH x 20
    Imperial Walkers x 20
    Mountain Climbers, Peter Parkers, Parker Peters x 15 each
    Self Love OYO for 1 minute
    Arm Circles Reverse/Forward x 10
    Hillbillies x 20

    The PAX then made it’s way to the statue in front of the zoo, and partnered up for a not so traditional DORA. The only exercise was 600 Penguins 2/1. Partner 1 ran the small loop while Partner 2 banged out penguins. We had 2 skips during the DORA, resulting in 20 burpees. The skipped songs were “Living on a Prayer” by Bon Jovi and “Spoon Full of Sugar” from the Mary Poppins sound track.

    The next transition was a run to the bandstand where the PAX circled up on stage for the Name That Tune challenge. The songs on this playlist are all songs that we know and love, but they are sung in a Lounge Singer style by the one and only Richard Cheese. The PAX did 30 Penguins 2-1 while the song played, then the PAX to the left had to guess either the song title OR the original artist. Get it right and we continue with penguins, a wrong answer gets the PAX 20 merkins. Some of the songs played were hits like, “Baby Got Back”, “Gin and Juice,” “Brass Monkey,” and “Been Caught Stealing” just to name a few. The PAX did pretty well as we only had 2 wrong answers resulting in 40 merkins. With 6:15AM approaching we made our way back to the flag for the standard COT.

    It is a pleasure to lead these men in a workout, and I appreciate the PAX indulging me in my crazy ideas.

  • 23053 Venti – from Sea Man

    RCR Venti – Couch and Brown Bag headed at a quick clip to bank miles. Rest of Pax followed at Venti Pace. 2 Trains and a light headwind on the levy didn’t delay pax, who arrived at SB to greet Willy who rucked starting at 0515. At SB PAX celebrated Huck’s 7th Birthday.

  • 24037 Tsunami – from Sea Man

    We record 14 showed up this morning for the Tsunami which became an impromptu Venti. We had 2 ruckers, 3 traditional Tsunami Runners, 9 Venti runners. Tsunami runners ran to the Levy, to JP line back up Oak and to Flag. Rest rendevoused for coffee at SB and back to flag for an early arrival.

  • 24032 Venti -RCR – from Sea Man

    In celebration of RCR, a massive wave of PAX sojourned into the gloom towards the river! Even Whoppers Delicate Machine was eager for a Double Esspresso! The Venti now consists of 3 Routes:

    Route 1 – The Esspresso – AKA IR Layup a walk down St Charles to Adams and to Starbucks
    Route 2 – Venti – down uptown side of the park, across Magazine, first right to the levy, sprint up the levy post Army Corps, to Carrolton to Starbucks.
    Route 3 – Grande Venti – down the uptown side of the park and continue round past the Golf Course. Cross Magazin towards the Grotto and Avenger Field then follow the levy to the standard Venti.

    We all rallied at Starbucks, for Dong Phong where exceeded the dBs of Baristas ears. We filed down Magazine like a bunch of middle aged Frat Dudes + O’Dulles + Tree Frong + Bubbles. TUPD was very confused as they past us.

    A lot of guys have been bringing their 2.0s on these runs and it has been fun. Routes 2 & 1 are done a clydesdales talking pace.

    Talking is the mission of the venti! Back in March a guy Justin Erenworth took his life and left a wife and 2 young kids with a lot of questions. Recentlly Peppa has had 2 HIMs from his Navy days take their life, and just last week Wilson & I, our friend lost their 16 yr old to suicide. So this give us a time to talk and be there for one another. Not everyone can stick around for coffee or “COFFEE” w/ Almonaster!
