Great showing at the Marsh following the month of RunCajunRun. Q planned a beatdown with minimum running this Gloom as I know many are wanting to rest the tread on their sneakers coming off an incredible month as mentioned by RY in his email.. YHC brought a companion (30 lbs …
Admittedly a little sad that this might be the last beatdown with temps that could reasonably be considered “cold” by anyone’s standards (excluding Toto), YHC’s mood was immediately improved when seeing a sight for sore eyes: making his long awaited return from a brief hiatus? BUBBA! A pax of 3 …
The cold must have frightened away any who otherwise would have posted on a holiday. Sad. Despite much chatter the night before, only Slots, Russo, and YHC attended the morning’s beatdown. 18 degrees by my calculation. And Russo wore shorts! As Run Cajun Run is well underway, YHC figured he …
YHC arrived at the Marsh to a cool 32 degrees this morning. While Grover and I sat in the car for a pre-thang warm up, we were not the first to arrive. Out of the corner of my eye I could see a lone figure doing Burpees. At first I …

First: Special Shoutouts — Jose 10k –DJ Jose had the best possible music, with songs individualized for members of the PAX Moby Dick –Dude’s 71, that’s …

Yes, you guessed it! The main event surrounded Jose’s pride and joy–his sweat jug! You remember… the one that some of his teacher friends reportedly spotted in the back seat of his car during a recent, quick trip for lunch. Mickey D’s, anyone? Just imagine the ‘splainin that must have …
To commerorate the 15th anniversary of Katrina, as well as the recent tragedy of Hurricane Laura, YHC crafted a beatdown that was not designed to be finished within the allotted time.
