A Stroll down Lafitte’s Greenway

Date:11/09/2017
QIC:Everyone
PAX:Backdraft, Beans, Bogey, Cowbell, Crab Legs, Jingle Vader, Milkman, Rudy, Tool, Triple Shift
  • Night time.  Strange how the DST change has made the night more gloomy than the morning.  But 10 PAX arrived in the evening gloom for a workout topped off with a few brews.  #Tclaps especially to Triple Shift and Jingle Vader, for whom this was their second F3 beatdown of the day.  #NegativeTClaps to Fracsac.  He knows why…..

Pre-Thang: A little marathon preparation at 7:00.  Reverse of the usual bayou st. johns 610 stomp route, heading up the bayou to the museum then back.  Thanks Cowbell for continuing to push me to move faster.

The Thang: Just in time, a gang of neon-lighted bicyclers showed up to help light our warmup.  They slowly circled us.  Both parties looked at the other, wondering what on earth they were up to…  But no more time for wondering, time to get started.

Usual Rudy start-up

  • Peter Parker x25
  • (interrupt our regularly scheduled plank-o-rama for a 10 OYO burpee penalty for JV’s late arrival)
  • Mountain Climbers x25
  • Parker Peter x25
  • Plank Jack x25

Bogey takes us to the Lafitte’s Greenway.  Partner up:

  • PAX 1: Lunge Walk to the next light pole, Bear Crawl back
  • PAX 2: did something
  • Flapjack
  • Repeat

Same pattern with PAX 1 sprinting down 2 lightpoles and back while PAX 2 did Mericans.

Same pattern with PAX 1 Bear Crawling then Lunge Walking (obviously different than LW followed by BC) while PAX 2 did LBCs

Beans takes over.  Agility Drills on Lafitte’s Greenway.  Same pattern.

  • PAX 1 Sprints, PAX 2 Supermans.  Flapjack
  • PAX 1 Karaokes, PAX 2 does something.  Flapjack
  • PAX 1 Backwards Run, PAX 2 Diamond Mericans.  Flapjack

Bogey Interjects.  He wants a turn again.

  • PAX 1 People’s Chair, PAX 2 5 8-count-body builders.  Flapjack.  Repeat
  • Triple Shift reminds everyone, especially YHC, that the Merican comes before the Plank Jack.

Tool takes us to the Post Office

  • PAX 1: 100 Rocky Balboa, PAX 2 Putins.  Flapjack.
  • Repeat with 80 Rocky Balboa and Hip Slappers

Cowbell really wants more ab work, so he finishes up with Crunchy Frogs xTooMany

Triple Shift sprints us back to home on the greenway circle.  Finish up with Count-off, Name-o-rama and a closing Prayer.

Then gathered around the table at Bayou Beer Garden for a burgers, fries, and a few beers.  Very enjoyable conversation – especially watching Bogey put the moves on the ladies…
