YHC knew that today would be tough after yesterday’s push with Cardinal to complete the Yankee-Jerf-Lee Challenge at The Stage in time to get him to say Mass without mud on his face. And, we also needed some warmup for Week 0 of the Iron Pax Challenge to be completed …
YHC has noticed that toward the end of particularly brutal beatdowns, even simple brain activity, like remembering your own name or age, can be a challenge. So, this morning, YHC decided to take up that challenge with a combination of a ladder routine and a memory game. (Props to Percleator …
Four uncultured swine joined YHC in the muddy pig pen of Schriever Park for a lesson in classic America. After a warmup of mud straddle hops and other favorites, we moseyed to the mini Thunderdome for our first piece. Aaron Copland was an American composer whose famous music has been …
Four PAX made their mark in the swampy grass at Schriever Park this morning as the initial side straddle hops squished deep ruts around the flag. But, if YHC is gonna get up at 5am to go jump in the mud, I’m grateful it’s with these HIMs. After a briefer …
A mixture of humidity and patriotism hung heavy in the air as 4 pax accumulated on the big hill at Lumen Christi this am. Enron came early to battle his Welsh dragon PTSD and seemed ready to face the moccasin within. He was greeted by a back-to-back Goose/YHC combo coming …
YHC was too lazy to unload the coupons from the truck after yesterday, so we used them again this morning. A lot. PAX: Paradox, Paradiddle, Elmer’s, Tighty Whitey, and Goose Warmup: SSH, WM, AC, IW, SL, all while staring at the ominous pile of blocks on top of the hill. …
A solid five PAX climbed the hill on another beautiful morning at Lumen Christi, awkwardly quiet at first about YHC’s choice of a smedium Superman shirt (with velcro cape). Why? Getting dressed in the dark? Delusions of grandeur? No, just cuz it’s stupid, and it might distract a little from …
Three PAX gathered for another gorgeous morning on the hill at Lumen Christi after YHC came rolling in two minutes late (still figuring out how to pad time for lines of extremely slow trucks on bayou highways). So, no time was wasted jumping right into some SSH, WM, AC, SL, …
Spared once again from forecasted rain, four PAX gathered on another unexpectedly beautiful morning to top the hill and plant the flag at Lumen Christi. YHC had designed this particular beatdown around Paradiddle’s recent comment revealing a desire for more running (and probably less hill crawling). Alas, there was no …
YHC was excited about the potential for record breaking numbers at the Houma location, Lumen Christi, including a unique FNG: priest #2 for the Bayou PAX! (Fr. J.D. Matherne, pastor of St. Hilary in Raceland will heretofore be known as Cutthroat!). However, at 5:45am, with what sounded like a Category …
