(This message was added in version 6.7.0.) in /home2/fthrnola/public_html/wp-includes/functions.php on line 6114You cannot ignore the H8! We tried. There was no H8! in April. Honestly, I forgot all about it. I guess I tried to push the H8! way down deep, but it never went away. The last few months have shown me that the H8! is always there. I can\u2019t ignore it. I have to deal with it. <\/p>\n
The Thang:<\/p>\n
Each lap consists of running south to the top of the levee, crossing canal (bear crawling the neutral ground), running south to the bottom of the levee, cross canal and run north to the top of the levee, cross canal (bear crawling the neutral ground), running north down the levee and back across canal to the starting point. At the starting point, you do a descending burp and merk pyramid starting at 8 (burpee with 8 merkins, burpee with 7 merkins\u2026burpee with 1 merkin)<\/p>\n
At the end of the 2nd lap the burp and merk pyramid starts at 7, etc.
\nThe goal is to complete 8 laps in 40 minutes. According to MapMyRun, each loop is approximately 0.4 miles. Therefore, to conquer the H8! you will have to do the following in 40 minutes: <\/p>\n
\u2022 Run over 3 Miles of Hills
\n\u2022 550 Yards of Bear Crawls
\n\u2022 36 Burpees
\n\u2022 120 Merkins<\/p>\n
We did AMRAP in 40 minutes.<\/p>\n
NMM<\/p>\n
\u2022\tThis was a full compliance hate \u2013 Strict 40 minute time limit, running on the sidewalk, no corner cutting, and bear crawling the entire length of the neutral ground.
\n\u2022\tWe had 12 guys attempt the H8! Today. That\u2019s a good turnout. T-claps to The Architect, High Rise, Mahatma, Mayhem, Pinewood, Mr. Rodgers, Rudy, Smooth, SOGO, Thighs, and Triple Shift for choosing to do hard things.
\n\u2022\tWas Mr. Rodgers brazen enough to attempt the H8! in a weighted vest?
\n\u2022\tA special shout out to High Rise and Mayhem for resisting the pull of the LVCC and their Temple of the Ole Man River. Members of the temple are devoted to a Chatbot they call Coach Greg. I was hoping a few more members would be willing to choose to battle the H8! Especially without their High Priestess Kuch and his Eunuch Glitter Balls in attendance. Unfortunately, the devotion of the following was too strong for them to waiver from the Supreme Chatbot\u2019s commands. Bongo, El Guapo, Jesus Juice, Mama\u2019s Pride, Saban, Sandberg, and Thumbwar sacrificed their manhood in sacred devotion to Coach Gregg this morning with a 45-minute easy run ritual.
\n\u2022\tThree completed all 8 laps today: Smooth, YHC, and The Architect.
\n\u2022\tSmooth went back out for lap 9 and was about 5 seconds short of finishing the running portion of the lap.
\n\u2022\tIf you have ever helped with a Youth Run Nola event, you will know that the kids take off in a sprint when the gun goes off. They do not know the difference between a 100-meter dash and a 3-mile run. I\u2019m guessing Pinewood is a YRN alum.
\n\u2022\tThere were a few guys that finished the eight laps in just over 40 minutes. They are prime to get all eight in April.
\n\u2022\tSpeaking of April, we now have 6 months to prepare. Let\u2019s keep pushing each other to stay disciplined and continue accelerating. <\/p>\n
