The third installment of Flicker ball on the North Shore’s lakefront pitch was a battle to the end. After a short warmup of core exercises and a push-up medley that included gorillas and spidermans, the group divided into two teams of 8 based on age. Once again the Juniors versus …

9 men showed up to get better this dark gloom for the annual Merkin Trap. It was so dark YHC was worried about seeing the Wiki if needed. But this has been done before, and besides making some cadence mistakes, went well with no Wiki needed. Conditions: near perfect, a …
Pax of 19 (including special guests like Paul Skenes, Creepy Baby, Green Alien, Bear Bird, Spider Man, and the Dude) for a scary good time this morning YHC referred to as the Northshore Monster Mash, with weather in the upper 60s and the sun finally appearing midway through. Warmup 10x-15x …

MUCH better weather all of a sudden today for a split beatdown. YHC, who is hot and sweaty when it’s a December morning, might even call is “mildly pleasant”. Up is down. Down is up. Cats and dogs living together. REGARDLESS, what a blessing some relief from the oppressive heat …

Following a long rehabilitation after shoulder surgery, during which YHC did ABSOLUTELY nothing overly strenuous that Chewy would frown upon, it’s back to the fire department. And, of course, that means then Lakefront is due for another Fire Fighter Challenge… this time Tabata style! Our own friendly neighborhood Steve graciously …
