After participating in the Tchoupitoulas Bar-A-Thon the night before with approximately a dozen other F3 Beer Champions, YHC did not want to get up and post, much less Q, at the Mothership. However, the being held accountable part of the F3 creed sat front and center of my brain, right …
Going back through the backblasts while looking for ideas – YHC ended up in the way back machine, re-reading several of the ideas from good ol’ Side Effects. So that, coupled with one surprise YHC saw while doing a slow mosey through City Park looking for something different, would inspire …
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) …
EMOM and DEM (you might have to be a “yat” to get it) What an awesome day to luck out as a fill in Q! 26 men decided to show up at the mothership for a Sat sweat which I wasn’t sure I had prepared to deliver. But non the …
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 …

4 of us gathered around an invisible site flag awaiting that 0530 start time when out of nowhere we hear screeching tires and a revved up engine coming in hot to the parking lot, blinker included. Who could it be? none other than our very own (or uptown’s own, we’ll …
From the start (a bit of humility and learning) set in for the QIC as 16 men gathered and heard the disclaimer by none other than Craig…..Oh wait a minute a.k.a. Mahatma-Ice. So it begins – DISCLAIMER Mosey to towards the big field for warm up – while listing to chirping complaints that “running” …
Its Okwata Time. That means its Levee time. 40 times. 11 PAX gathered around the shovel flag this morning in the dark gloom. Alas, no glorious sunrise over the waters of Okwata. The PAX will have to wait several weeks for the morning light to appear during the workouts again. …
