So after a last minute exit from Chowdah for his VQ, YHC decided to step up and take the Q. After planting the shovel flag in what was unusually hard dirt and the usual disclaimer, we were off. Mosey to the Kick-Ball Field in front of Audubon Zoo for Warm-Up: …
Being an F3 Nation member for only 10 months (last race I was nothin but a gleam in a Hawg’s eye), the Gnarly Nutria was the stuff of legend. A back and forth sporting event like the world has not witnessed since Ali vs. Frazier. Two heavyweights going toe to …
It was a light showing after the spillway classic and the running of the bulls last weekend so we worked out extra hard for all those who fart-sacked. There was some concern about working out in from of the Zoo after the jaguar escape over the weekend. No one said …
What rolls down stairs alone or in pairs, and over your neighbor’s dog? Well the PAX would soon find out! With a tardy pushed we ventured into an uncharted sea of possibilities. In the shadow of the Wolfpack Mountain we sojourned into the quads of Tulane. A warm up of …
T-claps to ‘Captain’ from Cleveland for posting with us today. His presence destroyed the stereotype of what I thought airline pilots did on their overnight layovers in far away places like New Orleans. Either Captain dusted off the glitter and rallied really well or he got a good night’s rest …
Cobains for the delayed backblast… At 05:30, YHC gave the disclaimer and we moseyed around the golf club parking lot and over to the grass by the bandstand for the warm up COP: plank jacks, imperial walkers, mtn. climbers, hill billies x 25 IC. Mosey to the shelter and grab …
BIG 25 person PAX for a YSR Q Warm up: partner one does defensive slides while the other does jumping jacks. Flapjack. Repeat with Parker Peters and Imperial Walker Squats Mosey to the Mountain. Run up and alternate between 5 burpees and abs of choice x 20. BLIMP and wait …
After coughing up a lung all night I figured resting my cold as I did Monday wasn’t going to cut it anymore. Having the q was the motivation I needed to get myself out in the gloom and hope that a good sweat may cure me. For extra motivation I …
Great group of 20 PAX showed up in the gloom this morning. By the look of the group, I knew they could handle some running. We bolted for a quick warmup and circle time before doing 11s between light posts on the Audubon Park track. The 11s included burpees and …
A record large group of PAX (28!) gathered at the AO in the refreshingly cool morning gloom. YHC bumbled the disclaimer, and we set off on a mosey across St. Charles, toward the traditional Wolfpack mountain. At the base of Wolfpack, the PAX divided into two groups for parallel Indian …
