Northshore at The NOLA Mothership

Date:04/14/18
QIC:Fracsac

With the Northshore convergence taking place, YHC wasn’t sure how many Pax would post to the Mothership.  Expecting a large presence on the NS, YHC was surprised to find 25 Pax gathered around the 4 shovel flags.  YHC was very happy to see 3 FNG’s post, keep up the EH’ing!

YHC decided it would be a good idea to dedicate the Mothership beat down to the Northshore in honor of their 2 year convergence.  Since the NS was planning a beat down that would visit each AO, YHC created one as well, with more of a virtual visit to each AO.  0630, so time for the disclaimer, then….

Mosey to the Great Lawn for the Warmup.  The Pax will begin and end at the Mothership….

SSH IC x 31
Imp Sq Walkers IC x 10
10 Burpees OYO

With the warmup complete, the Pax took a virtual bike ride to the first AO…

Milestone Marsh

YHC read a BB that had Waterpik doing suicides on the basketball court, so cones were set up to resemble a court for:

Burpee Suicides
Start at base line, sprint to first line, then back to base line for 5 Burpees
Sprint to half court and back to baseline for 5 Burpees
Sprint to 3rd line and back for 5 burpees
Sprint full court and back for 5 Burpees

The Pax mount their virtual bikes for a ride to the next AO….

Grandmothers House

YHC read a BB where Pelican, Shooter, and Ocho did some 11’s. Using the first and last row of cones…
10 merkins first row, 1 Bobby Hurley last row
9 merkins first row, 2 Bobby Hurley last row
Continue until 1 merkin and 10 Bobby Hurleys.

The Pax mount their virtual bikes for a ride to the next AO…

The Gipper

Turbo seems to like sprints, based upon his BB. Using the cones again….
Sprint from first row to last row, and complete 5 burpees, then slow mosey back.
Sprint from first row to third row, then some exercise, 5 merkins maybe…slow mosey back
Sprint from first row to second row, then maybe 5 squats, slow mosey back….
Sprint to last row again, and collect cones on the way back.

The Pax mount their virtual bikes for a quick ride to the next AO…

City Hall Scramble

Apparently Bushwacker likes to do a 5k run with Burpees and merkins, according to the BB…..
The Pax did a modified 5k run, stopping near Morning Call for 10 Burpees OYO. The Pax continued to the open lawn
near NOMA where they enjoyed a round of:
Catalina Wine Mixers IC x 10 (YHC had to fit them in)
Continue on to the NOMA fountain for:
Freak Nasties IC x 20

The Pax mount their virtual bikes for a short ride to the next AO…

Captains Cove

Captain Sparkles really likes to run…..seriously, he has a running AO named after him….that’s cool!

This AO is a 10k run, which the Pax did a modified version…
Line up in two columns on the path that goes around Lagoon Number 7 for:
Bataan Death March!
An Indian Run where the last Pax drops for 5 Burpees, then sprints to the front. Each Pax got to do a set, which took us one lap around the lagoon.

The Pax mount their virtual bikes to ride to the final NS AO…

The Lakefront

Steve had a BB where there was some bearcrawls and 8 Count Body Builders…nice
8 Count Body Builders IC x 10
line up at first tree, bear crawl to third tree for 5 Burpees OYO
Bear Crawl to 5th tree
Merkins IC x 10 (4 count)

The Pax mount their virtual bikes and head back to the Mothership Flags, but with a 6:29 arrival, the Pax had time for a quick mosey to the Great Lawn for:
10 Burpees OYO

Count Off, Name-O-Rama.
3 FNG’s joined us this day and were brought into the F3 Brotherhood. Welcome Mambi (He’s a hunter, said he harvested Bambi’s brother), Wolverine, an Ohio State alumni, and Recall, who does something with food and beverage.
Intentions, and closed with a prayer.

Great coffeteria was enjoyed by all that stayed.

YHC hopes you enjoyed this tribute to our NS brethren. YHC will make it back up there before long.

Thanks for posting with me today, and for pushing me.

It’s the little things that matter. After the 8 Count Body Builders at the Lakefront AO, YHC was about wiped out. Walleye apparently noticed, and he gave YHC some words of encouragement that proved enough to take it to the finish line. We push each other to improve and to succeed, taking our bodies farther than we thought they could go. That’s F3.
