Partner Up the WPM

28 PAX gathered on this beautiful, calm, cool Friday morning. Still very dark at 5:25 a.m…. but YHC noticed he wasn’t the only one using passports frequently these days… Your Mom’n Dem and Half Nelson traveled ALL THE WAY from Lakeview to Uptown just for this beat down. Seconds later, …

Techno-Free Beatdowns

YHC knows he’s old school, old fashioned, and just plain old.  #RespectHasItsDrawbacks.  For the COT, he utterly–and proudly–failed in his effort to record the names of the 28!!! PAX who posted in the gloom.  Even with Mariah’s held (#TClaps), it was hopeless.  Thank God our beatdowns are (generally) techno-free. With …

Don’t Lose Left Eye

After losing Left Eye last week, I was offered redemption. Left Eye saw I had the Q at Rock City, and was kind enough to give me another shot. 24 men arrived in the dark gloom of Pontiff, without lights, for a beatdown in the dark and damp. Bogey suggested …

Hamilton v Burr

As many New Orleanians might be aware, Hamilton has been playing at The Saenger for a 3 week run. As many F3ians might be aware, Da Parish and Rudy have a thing for musicals. So of course, the Hamilton workout was an obvious combination. And a plot was hatched – …

Two Minutes of Hate!

On a beautiful, crisp Friday Morning, 20+ PAX gathered for a Wolfpack Mountain beatdown.  So with a quick disclaimer off we….wait Amnesia reminded that we do have two AO’s Uptown.  So with a loud rally cry, two strong PAX (Amnesia and Bad Moon) embarked on a moonlight ganter through the …

2 is 1

It was a cold 40 so a PSA from Brown Bag Below 57 longs sleeves, below 50 pants and hat. Quick mosey to the Zoos mud field and warm up of SSH, Mountain Climbers, Parker Peters. We then formed into a line and did BLIMPS 5,10,15,… to the parking lot …

Sunnyside 2.0 w/ 2.0s

Not too gloomy this morning as 21 PAX and 2.0s posted at the AO. T-claps to Gabrielle for bringing the flag, but more on that in a moment. Quick overview for the 2.0s of what F3 means and why their daddies come home sweaty and stinky in the mornings. WARMUP …

Back to Skinny 2.0

There was a solid group of 20+ waiting In The Gloom this cool Monday morning. We kicked things off with a warmup in place: -15 second left-over-right and right-over-left stretches -15 SSH Then we ran. We headed up toward the Fly, then upriver along the levee, stopping every .5 miles: …

Uptownship

At 6:25 a.m., YHC only saw one other car in the parking lot. YHC had a feeling this may be the smallest group of PAX at the Mothership. Many HNJ PAX were at the T-Bois concert down by the Bayou. Few strong PAX were representing F3 Nola at the Spartan …

43 going on 44

23 PAX posted in the the dark at Rock City. The effects of the time change were felt as I tried to wake up and get ready to make the trek to Metairie. It was still so dark I could barely see who all had shown up in the dark …
