Mosey to the goals for….
Body Builder Basket Ball: Each man takes a free throw. The group does 10 8CBBs after each miss. War Eagle was the only one that made it. We did 20 8CBBs for the misses by Hoke and me. We went double or nothing on the last 4 and ran up a total of 80 8CBBs. Ran out of time so those 80 are for homework.
Back to the flagless gathering spot
COT: Announcements: Frac’s five year manniversary is tomorrow at Okwata. Show up for the celebratory burpees and levee work. Q-School with Professor Catfish is this Saturday at City Park. Encourage everyone, especially recent FNGs to come. City Park Clean-up after the workout. Prayers for Ryan and Rob. Gratitude for our health and F3.
NMM: It seemed especially sticky out there today. Make sure you are hydrating constantly. If you are working out everyday, a gallon of water should probably be your goal. T-claps to War Eagle and Papa for the hard charge on the last two 400s, although there was grumbling that they were sand baggin’ on the first two. Where was Catfish when I needed him? No one was with me on the Bonnie Blairs, apparently not a crowd favorite. Our B-Ball skills need work. 1-7 from the line this morning. T-claps to War Eagle for the make. Found out he was the Middle School MVP in Podunk, AL.
It was humid today and we are looking at hot, humid workouts for the next 4 months. The heat and humidity in New Orleans is what the F3 Lexicon terms a “condition,” a dis-Advantage that cannot be remedied. We cannot change it; we can only embrace it and deal with it. We do not have mountains here. We do not have thin air. But we do have more heat and humidity than any place in the country.
