I’m always looking for a little variety in my F3 Q’s and I’ve often thought we’ve only scratched the surface as far as what fun and excitement may be found on the Loyola and Tulane campus. Fun in the 41 year-old, 530 am, healthy lifestyle kind of way. Lest a mind or two went elsewhere. So for this particular Friday we took and diffent path and hit new terrain including a distant mountain.
Warm-up: at the flag stretch our hammys and our quads. Display poor balance. Let’s Mosey.
Our mosey took us through the Tulane campus across Freret and to what appears to be the Tulane quad. Grass isn’t as nice as Loyola but still a comfortable place for a COP:
- SSH IC X 20
- IW Squats X 20
- Monkey Humpers X 20
- Bear crawl across the lawn
Mosey again heading across Willow to the parking garage near Yulman stadium. Mount Greewave if you will.
OYO to the top with 10 Burpees then plank and wait. Stairs to the bottom and to our delight the open air stairwell had a nice little breeze.
Mosey over to Calhoun street for a nice straightaway to the Loyola campus and Wolfpack hill. OYO to the summit and 20 lunges at the top. Stairs to the bottom- AC in this stairwell, even better.
Mosey to the original high altitude implement, Wolfpack Mountain. Again OYO to the summit. 30 LBCs as your prize. T-claps to Hawg for sweeping the 6 and to the Pax for finishing the job.
Mosey back to the flag. I realized one of the reasons I enjoy the running as it gives a nice opportunity to chat with the Pax. I learned that despite his very beachy persona that Sandbar is originally from Kentucky and that he works for the smallest Federal agency (some acronymly named coastal preservation group). Good F2.
Count off, namorama, announcements. I prayed for the courage to see through the many challenges we face. A workout can be a metaphor for life and and much like the group is stronger than the individual, we are stronger with God.
