The Q Sheet has been updated and there is plenty of room to Q Okwata. Join us at the “Wide Water”. Today we reminisced on some of the “Best Of’s” to ever grace the Lakefront Sunrise. W/U Mosey around the fountain > Butt Kicks > Karaoke > High Knees > …
With a delightful temperature of around 45 and the wind blowing a tad over 20 or 25 mph or so and waves spewing sea cucumbers and other detritus over the seawall, the diligent PAX were few in the gloom this morning. YHC can only rationally deduce that all the other …
A few weeks ago, YHC saw a backblast referencing a “traditional Okwata workout” that involved the levee and some exercises. As the children’s game of telephone illustrates, as word gets passed from one PAX to another, sometimes the message gets tweaked as it gets passed along. And looking at the …
On Tuesday evening, December 31st, YHC put out a brief message: Get some rest tomorrow, because Thursday will feature the 400 at Okwata. This was done for several reasons: First and foremost, the 400 is hard. It’s a great aerobic/anaerobic mix, and I at least tend to get winded pretty …

The iconic opening words to the song made famous by the 1985 smash hit “Vision Quest”. Who could forget this iconic scene? Look at those moves! No wonder this movie was so popular! Okay, so perhaps a minor exaggeration on my part as not a single member of the Pax …
On a windy Thursday by the shores of Lake Pontchartrain, history was made in F3 New Orleans. Triple Shift and Kuch kicked off the festivities for the H8 VII! They split the Pax up into two groups due to the great showing of 33 men to take on the challenge. …
Gentlemen, i just realized that i haven’t posted the backblast from my Okwata Q back on 8/8/19. To quote Brad Gluckman from Malibu’s Most Wanted, “My Bad!” I don’t remember the Pax members, but here’s a summary of the workout: Warmup: can’t remember what we did, but we definitely warmed up …
