75 degrees to start this morning, for a split IPC / non-IPC beatdown at the lakefront. Warmup – there was one, but Jose had YHC distracted with discussion of soft hands, tailbone skin, and defibrillators. Thang 7 for IPC week 2 (lots of running, modified burpees and merkins) and 5 …
Some weird planetary alignment threw us into an alternate universe this morning, and not a good one. Cowbell showed up on time (which should’ve been our first sign that things were askew), immediately souring JV’s intention to “live his life gloriously” while Cowbell was away for a week. As the …
18 men showed in the gloom this morning for a game of F3 Kickball. We are taught to modify as necessary, and learn through trial and error that some things work, and some things don’t. Even the best laid plans go wrong sometimes, and it happened today. Below is the …
YHC’s plan was to mosey to Granny’s for the main thang, but a backup plan was made after a peek at the weather last night. Unsure that anyone would arrive – with Pik still camping and JV announcing the fartsack at coffeeteria Saturday – YHC was pleasantly surprised when 3 …
Cool morning at the Lakefront with 14 PAX posting. Looked to be a slim crowd at first as QIC was greeted by Moby Dick and Sonny (aka Turbo Dog) after returning from coupon delivery to Milestone Marsh. Welcome to everyone, glad to see Cathy returning following the previous week’s Merkin …
Admiral Gail Akbar of the Mon Calamari returns to the Northshore Mothership once again, to fight another battle against Darth Fartsack and the Sad Clown Empire. His secret mission this trip is to investigate the galactical mystery of Plutonium, reportedly found in the NOLA area by some beast named Hawgcycle. …
8 plus YHC in a warm gloom this morning, completely opposite from the first time I experienced this beatdown in Nashville 2 years ago – 17 degrees and snowing. The results were the same, we all got better today. Warm up: ICx 10-15 SSH, Self-Love, Imperial Walkers, High Knees, Grass …
Temperature was down to 37 this morning at the Gipper, which was not quite low enough for a winter wonderland (or sleeves for YHC), but cold enough for some reindeer games. As a kid, if you asked me what the best part of Christmas was, the easy answer was presents. …
I know it says Zoolander was the Q for this one, but that’s only because YHC’s name isn’t on the dropdown menu yet. And, it was ultimately Zoo’s idea to get the fellas from down the bayou to Q a November Lakefront beatdown, and we couldn’t be more grateful! YHC …
Talk about a dark warmorama. About the only definable figure I could make out was, well nobody, really, since Shooter wasn’t there. Of course I knew Jose was present from the early morning grumbling, but the rest of the crew were shrouded in mystery. Given such circumstances, YHC delivered a …
