YHC showed up this morning with sidekick Grover to a surprisingly clean Milestone Marsh, unwelcome heat, mosquito’s, and a stranger in the dark. Turns out it was not a stranger, but Hogsbreath in the flesh from Slidell by way of Monterey. Quick introductions all around, welcome back Hogsbreath! Warm up …
This September is the 75th anniversary of the end of WWII. We set out to accomplish the original GI test in honor of our forefathers who fought for our freedom. This is the original test from Fort Bragg in 1946. What stood out most to me is the insane attention …
With TS/Hurricane Sally on its way, there was no time to waste! WARMORAMA x10 IC: Apple Grabbers, T Stretches, Toe Touches, Imperial Walkers, Windmills, High Knees THANG Starting at Lamarque/Livingston headed west down Livingston, the Pax lined up in plank position head to foot. Man at the 6 would bear …
In preparation, YHC arrived early (though never as early as “Early Bird” 10K) and began walking down Livingston towards Marigny laying out strategically placed Cowley Cones along the way. Trotting along obliviously without a care in the world came a shaddowy pointy-eard poofy-tailed pedestrian. So what does the fox say? …

Yes, maybe it was a bit cruel to spring a Murph on the Marsh crew on a Monday morning. I figured I’d get a, “Oh hell no,” from Cowbell. And a, “Yeah, that’s great, thanks Steve. After I’ve done 120 frickin’ ISI squats,” from Jose. And a lot of eye …
While searching for Fartlek’s in prep for the Scramble a few weeks ago, YHC discovered another type of interval that sounded like fun. It would also give us a baseline to track our progression over the year. Today we did the Marine Core Officers Candidate School Fartlek, which is done …
While the only water that would be had on this Monday at the Marsh would be experienced in perspiration. This was proven as well when Zoolander attempted to grab a swig from the water fountain to no avail. The city apparently feels the basketball court can open, but bring your …
The rain was everywhere and nowhere, and much to Steve’s chagrin, we were covered at the Marsh, soon to be soaked only by our own sweat. THANG No warm-o-rama, no mary – just TABATA! Many thanks to Waterpik for the speaker which allowed us all to hear the random background …
