  • Fuller House – from Waterpik

    Thanksgiving week is upon us! It appears the pax is Trying to burn some pre Thanksgiving calories this week as the pax was 7 strong in the gloom. It’s Always good to welcome F3 regulars at other AOs to the milestone marsh, even if it is only occasionally. Shooter, SOGO, and Jose, thanks for joining us!

    4 corners was on the pre thanksgiving menu today. Reminding me of Russo, SOGO was disturbed how the math didn’t add up as YHC only led the pax to “3 corners, not 4”. But, anyone who has ever to been to my workouts knows the math rarely adds up. So, welcome SOGO!

    Cot, Prayer intentions offered.

  • Ruckers and Gazelles – from Jose10k

    Due to another useless training for YHC, I got to grace the scramble with my presence this morning. So I sent out the Ruckers unite bat signal, and they answered the call. 3 Ruckers, 3 gazelles, on this gloomy Thursday morning. Finished up with copper head squats, followed up by lunges for an entire Foo Fighters song. Turkey Trot in a week, SOGO has the Q Saturday. My coworkers husband, my personal family issues, and Hammers new home purchase were the intentions that Hammer most graciously prayed us out with. As always, it was my honor to join y’all this morning. It provides me with tremendous peace.

  • The Long Game – from Waterpik

    Every once in a while, you’ve just gotta go for it. That was YHCs mindset when I decided to send the Pax all the way down the mandeville lakefront to the stop sign at Girod st. For those unfamiliar, that adds another mile to the normal route at the weekly 5K.

    And so there you have it. After a very brief warmup, the Ruckers started out on their journey and the runners did the same.

    With 2 minutes to spare the pax reconvened at the mandeville city hall for cot, announcements. Thanks for Russo for praying us out.

  • Ruckers and Runners – from Waterpik

    Coolish temps 65 degrees. Much better than one or two months ago. All was well at the Scramble today as a nice crowd of HIM assembled at the mandeville city hall
    4.13 miles logged by the runners at a slow but steady pace. Good start to the day!

  • Not Quite Sure What We’re Doing, But Your Legs Will Pay the Price – from Bushwacker

    YHC saw an empty Q sheet and signed up late in the game. There was every intention of putting something creative and challenging together after finally getting a spare 30 minutes, but alas, the A/C started acting up and stole away the golden hour of beatdown planning. And thus, starting with an idea for a lot of squats, it never got much further….

    WARMORAMA

    IC x10: SSH, High knees, Butt Kicks, Windmills, ….

    THANG

    After lunge walking to the nearest fire hydrant along the lakefront, the PAX did x10 IC(20actual;) Squats. Continuing sprinting, skipping, and moseying, repeating x10 IC Squats at each hydrant , the guys partnered up for some B L P I…no no, B P L M… ah yes, B L I M P S. 50 Burpees, 100 Lunges (2is1), 200 Imperial Walkers, 100 Merkins, 200 Penguins (2is1) and 50 Squats. After all of that was sort of figured out and finished, 2 lines of Indian Running took off for the flag. However, somewhere along the way one line began to crumble, and what remained merged to forge ahead (like Waterpiks full litter-pick up sprint that left even the swiftest of us in the dust). Some circling back for the 6 and Mary got underway.

    MARY

    LBCs, LMCs, Flutter Kicks, Freddy Mercuries and 100s

    COT

    Count, Name, and FNG naming. Welcome Jenny 98! F3 camping trip Saturday, November 4, see Slack. Mathlete prayed us out.

    We all await our honorary Northshore Nant’an Hog’s Breath’s release of of details on the upcoming F3 Northshore’s 3 Fs Competition throughout the month of November. Stay tuned to Slack for rules, point structure, and all the ways us mere mortals may FINALLY be able to beat Grundy at something!

    Many thanks for following my lead, guys. If you did it right, you should be in at least half as much pain as I am at the moment!

  • Hammer as Cowbell – from Waterpik

    When a set of headlights rounded the corner YHC assumed it was an appearance from Cowbell at his usual time – mid warmups. Instead it was The hammer doing his best cowbell impersonation. Comin in hot.

    Good to have Shooter back in the gloom and an appearance from Jose (grumble , grumble) is always a nice treat.

  • The scramble – from Waterpik

    The scramble welcomed, Weeblo, a down range visitor from Jackson, MS today. Look for a man driving a U Haul truck and you might find him at your AO.
    We took the lakefront route today at a slow, east pace, but enjoyed the slightly cooler temps than the summer brought just last month.
    It was good to be present and accounted for this morning men. I enjoyed the camaraderie.
