610 Stomp #15 – Bayou Boogaloo

5 Burpee starved men met in the brisk City Park gloom hoping to earn their turkey and dressing this week.  There was some necessary needling of Amnesty for missing his Q yesterday.  YHC decided to stick with the new Moss Street route, extending it two blocks past Canal to get it closer to 4.5 miles.  After a quick disclaimer we we set off

The Thang

Run past the museum and out of the park.  Head Southish on Bayou St. John / Moss St.  Continue 2 blocks past Canal, then turn around and come back to the flag running along the other side of the Bayou.  All the while, stopping every 6 minutes to do one minute of burpees/recovery.  Once everyone gets back to the flag we seal the deal with 10 additional burpees.

  • In reality the route was about 4.3 miles.  I think we can stretch it out to Banks and make it 4.5.
  • Great job this morning.  I think everyone ran this route faster this week than last week.  Everyone was under the 10 min/mile pace.  Time to add more burpees?
  • For some reason Shorty and SFx decided it would be a good idea to try to fit in 15 burpees at each stop.  T-claps to them for getting in 100 burpees this morning.
  • The dew on the banks of the bayou is much thicker and wetter than other places.  #Science
  • The Ideal gas station near Parkway Bakery has gas for $1.53 #Corn
