Sayonara Fujiwhara

Granny’s House was supposed to be a wash out this morning.  70% when I checked last night.  And as much as YHC appreciates a good wet beatdown, after the Marsh’s Week Zero IPC beatdown yesterday, it seemed like maybe some shelter was in order. Of course, there was no rain. …

That’s One Nasty Six-Pack

I think the summary of this workout is perfectly captured by what Shooter said at the end. “I’ve had my share of six-packs in my day, but that one had to be the worst” Warmup SSHShoulder series The Thang We got right into the meat of the workout and today …

Full Moon Fever

Anyone who has posted this week has probably gotten glimpses of the glorious full moon, made even more unbelievable in its larger, low-hanging position somewhere in the 0500 hour.  That, combined with our near perfect temperatures, makes this that rare Louisiana week that is about as good as it gets …

Pre-thang, Shme-thang

Krewe of F3!

Is Mardi Gras the world’s longest-running, largest, free, annual, outdoor celebration? I’ll let the PAX chew on that for a while. In the meantime, there was no celebrating yet at the Mandeville City Hall Scramble as it was business as usual for the veteran PAX of F3 Northshore. Word has …

The Grundy-mobile

The PAX knew something was up when YHC walked up to the flag from the backside. When asked about the reason for the strange entrance, a simple “you’ll find out” would suffice. With the PAX aware of something looming, we began to warmup. 30 Seal Jacks IC 10 Forward Lunges …
