I have to admit that I anticipated a light and groggy pax this morning following a beautiful Easter weekend here in NOLA. I know I afforded myself an extra beer or two between the Crescent City Classic and family festivities over the weekend. Yankee perhaps anticipated the same when he …
So on a beautiful Monday morning, YHC moseyed up to the AO and noticed no water anywhere around! It’s been awhile since we haven’t had the sweet aroma of ducks@#t surrounding us in our beatdowns. Maybe this is a good sign… After disclaimer we moseyed to open field on the …
“It is not the mountain we conquer but ourselves.” – Sir Edmund Percival Hillary 12 men were ready to go at 5:30. After a brief stop on the lush Loyola grass, 10 MCs & 10 MCMs, we headed to the base of the mountain: Two Line Indian Run to the 3rd …
It was a true cinderella story! The dream of young men and old men aspiring to greatness coming true! To rise before the sun. To journey out into the damp gloom, a dampness that foreshadows summers brutal heat that hammers us with the heat of Hephaestus’ forges! Yes it was …

A record 26 PAX showed up Wednesday morning to the heavy, humid smell of duck shit. We ran quickly from that spot in order to introduce the PAX to some special hip-loosening yoga stretches. Seaman got a little too excited about these and had to be publicly asked to stop …
The Pax always enjoys a birthday beatdown and since my 42nd happened to be on the day of a traditional running workout and we are in the middle of the Run Ranger Run challenge I figured I’d take the Q and log some miles. Resurrecting a Halloween Q get-up I …
Fun time in the gloom this morning with a great turnout. Obviously inspired by Hawg’s presence, the PAX amped up the mumblechatter to near-Metry levels and kept it going throughout the workout. After a quick disclaimer, we took the traditional stroll up and down the Avenue and set up in …
So after a sun-filled week in Orlando with the M and 2.0’s,YHC was ready to get back to the regular beatdown with his F3 brothers. So much so, that we even suspended the no-burpee Monday rule. Apparently one week of no burpees equals a burpee pyramid. After disclaimer 16 PAX …
