0530 struck and the scheduled Q was a fartsack. “I’LL TAKE IT”, YHC passionately exclaimed, “The Stomp is the easiest Q there is.” As Tool pointed out, this Back Blast is the hardest part. The Thang: 30 min round trip on the traditional Bayou St. John route. YHC enjoyed some …
I guess its better late than never to post a back-blast. Eight men arrived in the dark gloom on Wednesday 5/2/18. Still no lights on Roosevelt Mall. The usual disclaimer and off we go. We moseyed down Roosevelt Mall to a warm-up COP. SSH x 20 IC Imperial Walkers x …
YHC came in with high hopes of easily surpassing 3 miles in this morning’s Mothership. Well, we only got to 2.8. Below is a recap of my failure. Warm-up Line up on the great lawn: High knees (20 yards) Carioca (40 yards) Butt Kicks (20 yards) Arkansas Do-si-dos (20 yards) …
Humidity is back. Lights are still missing. Tuesday morning at The Stomp, and Rudy was ready for a run. Last few weeks have seen some variations from the tried-and-true out-and-back run, but YHC was looking to get some mileage in. A solid group of 7 PAX started off on the typical …
ANZAC Day A day of remembrance for the Australian and New Zealand soldiers who landed on Gallipoli in World War 1. Depending on your point of view, this was perhaps the most devious but poorly executed plan, or the most ill-begotten idea ever devised by humans. Regardless, the actual outcome …
Rewind 3 years ago to a rainy Saturday morning in April when YHC was coaxed into coming to his first F3 workout, standing in the dark amid the mud and a bunch of dudes calling each other by goofy names. Not exactly the best way to spend a Saturday morning …
The Natives gathered in the gloom awaiting the arrival of El Caballo Blanco. In true Islenos fashion, he rolls in hot just after the disclaimer and instructions had been given. The natives were excited at his arrival, believing he would provide the beacon of light they needed to reach the …
Couldn’t ask for better weather to start a Monday so “Let’s Rock-Kong”! 10 men showed up to push their physical boundary. Disclaimer given then off for a quick mosey to circle up for a warm up: SSH x 20 IC Peter Parker x 20 IC Mtn Climbers x 20 IC Shoulder Taps x …
We arrived at the Foundry in the pitch black, and soon realized the street lights were out. A true morning gloom! Oh well. The show must go on. The usual disclaimer, with an additional message of safety in the dark, of course, and off we go. First COP: SSH x …
It’s standard convention to end with the Naked-Man Moleskin, but I’m going to stick the important stuff up front. NMM I’ve learned a couple of things this week from our F3 brothers about how to have impact. You don’t have to make big waves to have impact, it can result …
