  • Jose needs PaxMiner credit – from Russo

    Some days the only thing driving YHC to get up before 5AM are the three Fs. Emphasis on the fellowship. So when a humble request went out last night to include at least some running from Bushwhacker, YHC modified what he had planned to fulfill said request, looking forward to the chatter that only he can bring. Alas, Sir Whacker decided he would rather the comfort of bed than the mosey pace of a Granny’s post. Thumbs down. But Steve and Jose10k helped YHC hold down the fort, the latter of which surprised me when his response to his miles tallied thus far was “6” instead of the normal 2-3. That bar can’t keep raising, Jose. Thumbs up.

  • And there was only 1 who made the Au Lait a true 10k!! – from Shooter

    Any guesses? You already know the answer.. Jose10k cannot post Au Lait 10k and not complete the official 6.2. Most inspiring however, was Will.I.Am (#homealoneextra) finishing with the PAX.. Coffee followed at Abita. Appreciate the push Speedy..

  • Leg Work at the A1C – from Einstein

    Only three made the early bird special this morning, even the dog bailed

    warmup:extensive

    thang: up-down ramps, and parking lot strip activities

    prayers for Jose10K’s student that he’s tutoring

  • It’s The Most Wonderful Time of The Year – from Steve

    Pik strolled up to the Scramble this morning to find a pax of 9 already huddled (and another with his weathered Charity sweatshirt coming in hot), and he wondered what the hell was going on. Then he remembered, oh yeah, IT’S FEBRUARY.

    That’s right, the second most wonderful time of the year, where if you miss one day of running, you realize you’ll need 8-10 miles the next day just to make up for it. Or, if you’re Frank, simply run a full marathon instead of a half (and, of course, 4 murphs instead of two).

    Anyway, big pax assembled today for the start of RCR 2024, even turning some ruckers (JV and Russo) into runners, and bringing out old familiar (yet clean shaven) faces like Chewy.

    Lakefront route today, all the way to Girod to get us a little past 4 miles. Went a little over on time also, my apologies fellas.

    COT with straggler ruckers still rolling in, and Hammer prayed us out. T-claps to all the pre-thangers – Jose, Hammer, Waterpik.

    Don’t forget to log your miles: https://www.runcajunrun.com/mileage-log/ It is a leap year, so hey, with that extra day now is the time to shoot for the RCR record of 403 miles.

    Oh, and even though there’s been no buzz about it and no one even knows where the hell the Freedom Hammer lives and there’s an event in Thibodaux that morning, the Krazy Ivan is indeed still happening on Saturday, Feb 17th, at 8pm. If you don’t have a tank top, Sogo can probably lend you one.

  • Trio of Tards on this Tuesday!! – from Shooter

    Rolling up to Granny’s with just one car in sight could only mean one Tard was already getting after it.. You guessed it, Jose10k was already Moseying through the streets of Mandeville looking to get out to a BIG lead in 2024 ahead of Russo on the PAXminer report.. YHC would soon be joined by another Tard in Steve, as he rolled up on his bike out of the dark..
    We started our warmup completing Arm circles, selflove, windmills, grass grabbers, toe touches and SSH.
    Workout included a deck of cards as we went zigzagging through the streets..
    Exercise’s were ❤️8 count body builders, ♦️Merkins, ♠️Flutter kicks and ♣️Carolina dry docks. Moseyed to each corner, flipped over cards till each suit got played before moving on. First corner proved to have the luck as each time we visited 4 cards flipped and each suit played. Other corners were not as friendly..

    Appreciate you both for posting and until the next Gloom 👍🏼👊🏼✌🏼!!

  • Mandevillians ASSEMBLE! – from Jose10k

    Lost my first one, so here’s my 2nd one. We ran, Mandevillians represented well, and Bushwacker brought a trailer for a 4 foot ladder

  • 3 on the Escalator – from Russo

    Muggy and not cool this morning at Granny’s, as low 60s returned, as did the sweating for YHC. Jose was wrapping up his pre-thing run, all business-like and ready to kick some tail. Steve joined shortly thereafter. Reason number 104 to come out to Granny’s: to catch Steve coming out for the darkness riding his bike, not looking a whole lot different than when Jigsaw wanders out to tell his next unsuspecting victim “I want to play a game.” Now I will ponder what a Saw-inspired beatdown would look like: “you have two minutes to complete 20 burpees with Waterpik form, or you’ll be subject to feeling the Jose summer sweat splashdown”.

    Warmup – all 10-15x IC
    Sealjacks, grass grabbers, high knees, imperial walkers, self love, toe touches

    Thang
    I had hoped to compete what YHC calls the Escalator, 8 exercises, varying rep counts 1 through 8, total rep for each of the 8 at 36, as we moseyed in a figure 8 pattern around Granny’s. Alas, it’s a farther mosey than expected, so we were only able to complete 4 of the 8 rounds. All told, even without a fancy Garmin, my phone said we did about 2 miles, or about 3200 meters. Which is 8 times around a standard 400 meter track. Math, Jose!

    Exercises:

    8 count bodybuilders
    SMCs
    Imperial squat walkers (2 is 1)
    Donkey kicks
    Big boy sit-ups
    Wide merkins
    Kid N Plays (2 is 1)
    Murder bunnies

    Mumble revolved around Mardi Gras, leaks, appliances, episode 8s, and New Year’s resolutions.

    COT, NOR, Announcements, Prayer, in that order.

    RCR, Camping, Ivan, all coming up.

    Major T claps to both Steve and Jose for posting after Sunday’s nightmare, made all the more impressive because of Jose’s IronPax / Au Lait / Nightmare trifecta. He continues to set the bar high.

  • Howling Ass and Abs – from Hogs Breath

    This backblast, like a woman’s period, is better late than never.

    YHC arrived at the A1C about 5 mins early, to find a trio awaiting me!

    The very first thing was a warm up mosey to second deck, which included some karaoke, butt kicks and stuff. The warm up also included some toe touches and YHC favorite Mountain Man Poopers.

    The Thing;
    We began with a few rounds of Howling monkeys. Which is Monkey Humpers in a circle, the play continued until YHC determined there was enough groaning.

    Backwards run to next corner with some Howling V-ups. V-Ups in a circle until YHC determined there was enough groaning.

    Backwards run to third corner with Howling Holes. Or squats in a similar fashion.

    See a trend?

    Backwards run to last corner with Howling flutter kicks.

    Walking lunge down the ramp to the bottom deck. Since the date was 1/19, we did 119 collective wife pleasers!

    Mosey back up to second deck and rinse and repeat for the Howling rounds.

    What would be an A1C beatdown without some calf raises up to the top deck?

    YHC even brought a jug of coffee to have an impromptu Coffeteria. Jose 20K had to leave early otherwise a nice ice cold soda was awaiting for him!

    Hopefully four men left the beatdown with better looking Ass and ABs!

  • One resolution down, one to go – from Jose10k

    Damn it’s cold but rewarding this morning

  • Speedy came in hot! – from Jose10k

    4 of us ran the 10k, keeping a solid pace for the group. Only to have a flash pass us with a 1.5 miles left. Speedy ran a 6 30 pace to catch us and beat us.( and he ran another mile more than)
