Tag: The 610 Stomp

  • 610 Stomp#124

    Pacecar spent the last Stomp in the kennel while YHC was off celebrating the New Year in Texas, but she was not going to miss today. Somehow knowing it was Tuesday, Pacecar stuck to YHC like white on rice while YHC was getting ready. Arriving at the AO about two minutes early to a cruel discussion about how Georgia folded like a cheap suit to Saban’s squad, Pacecar gave JV a HELLO!
    Quick Disclaimer, as all veteran F3 Men here, then simple instructions, well sort of. Run 20 minutes out, turn around, and come back. Be back at the Flag for 0610, allowing 5 minutes of added fun.
    JV, Da Parish, Woz, Pacecar and YHC got to around Canal Street and turned around. Rudy, Triple Shift and Cowbell bolted well beyond that. Well done to all.
    Back at the flag, here’s what happened:
    Flutter Kicks IC x 15
    Tin Snips IC x 15
    American Hammer IC x 15
    Seal the deal with 15 Burpees OYO!

    COT

    Count off, name-o-rama.

    Intentions included those suffering from illness, with a special shout out to Shorty and his M, as she is expecting their 2.0 very soon, and both are down and out.

    Announcement:  Crazy Ivan with the Northshore Pax is coming up soon.  There should be additional info coming out, but last mumblechatter has it set for Saturday January 20th at 2100.  Da Parish is King of the Krewe of Lourdes, so join him at his Ball on January 27th, see details here

    Close with a prayer to the Sky Q.

    The weather is nice this week, so get out and post.

     

     

  • Post Christmas Stomp

    Still a bit cold and dark, but 4 was enough to kick off a holiday work out and make out way towards a new year.

    Off a minute or so late,  and so we go on the main run towards the bayou as a pax.  After getting back tiny he track,  we took in about 3.2 miles per rudy’s watch.

    Then back to track to squeeze in a modified Red Barchetta before time on the unmarked football field.

    25 yards out and 10 burpees and back

    50 yards out and 20 merkins (not Berkins in the cold)

    75 yards out and 30 ssh and back

    100 yards and 40 squats and back

     

    A bit more time for ab work…

    20 LBCs

    hold plank

    back to cot for names, announcements, intentions and prayer.

     

    thanks for the opportunity to lead.  ♦

     

  • seiscientos diez pisar muy fuerte #121

    It was 0530 and 7 men and a K9 looked at each other wondering who was going to take the Q. If Pacecar could have spoke, she probably would have asked why there was a dog in a truck at the AO. You thought she was gonna speak up and take the Q? Dogs can’t talk…..
    YHC volunteered, gave a brief disclaimer, and said to run for 20 minutes out and 20 minutes back on traditional route. Arriving back at 0610, the Pax did:

    Flutter kicks IC x 20
    WW2 Situps IC x 10 (4 count)
    Hello Dolly IC x 20

    Seal the deal with 10 Burpees OYO (enter the dog from the truck to make Pacecar uneasy…..)

    COT
    Count off, Name-o-rama, announcements, intentions, and closed with a prayer to the Sky Q.

    It was a real gloomy morning in the gloom, as one can see from the photo.

    Thanks for posting with me today. SYITG.

    Naked Man Moleskin
    This was an effort at translating 610 stomp to Spanish. YHC just wants to see if RY is paying attention…..

  • P2-610 Stomp #118

    P squared…K9’s Puddles and Pace Car joined us on our run this morning.

    After the brutal beatdown of our hamstrings at Rock City (thanks Triple Shift), it was time for a nice and easy run of 20 minutes out on the traditional route past the museum and along the bayou, and back.  Back at the SF, 15 burpees cuz that’s what we do at the Stomp….

    Countoff, namerama, announcements, shoutouts, prayer.

    See you at the Foundry tomorrow…

  • Under and Over 610 Stomp

    8 pax + 1 Canine gathered around the site flag anxious to get some miles in.
    YHC crafted up yet another route, its always good to keep things fresh.

    Route is simple- head out on the road around the track, left at the fields, go UNDER 610 and take left, take next right and follow the diagonal cut over (don’t go straight!) take a right at the circle on Harrison ave, take another right on Wisner and go OVER 610, take a right by Christian Brothers, head back to the flag via Roosevelt Mall. eh, looks a little easier on a map. all in all about 3.6 miles total.

    Per usual, Rudy and YHC ran together and per Rudy’s brilliant idea, ran a lagniappe 1 mile lap around the pond on the way back.

    T-claps to Woz for pushing through the run with us in preparation for his upcoming GoRuck.

    With a few minutes to spare, we spent it with Mary:
    20 X Crunchy Frog
    20 X Flutter Kicks
    20 X American Hammer
    20 X LBC’s

    Circle up for Announcements, Intentions, and Prayer.

    Oh, and then count off and name-o-rama. T-claps to Fracsac for remembering!

    Thanks for letting me lead.

  • Running at the stomp

    9 human PAX and 1 k9 PAX arrived in the foggy gloom at City Park this am.

    YHC had the Q, and as I am now embarking on a training program towards a March Marathon – the workout today was going to be pretty simple: run.  (and as a hint for all the rest of you PAX: if you see my name on the Q sheet for the 610 stomp in the coming weeks, the workout is probably going to be about the same….)

    All PAX on your own pace – head down the Bayou route.  Be back at the VSF for Mary around 6:10.  Thanks, Cowbell, for the pace and the F2 on the route.  Cowbell participated in a Youth Run NOLA event this weekend – read more at http://youthrunnola.org/.  Great program, nice work Cowbell.  I think you’ve talked me into signing up for it!

    Finished with Mary (Dolly, Rosalita, Flutter Kicks).  Then count-off, names, announcements and prayers.  In particular, Fracsac reminded us to be thankful for our own kids with a callout of upcoming Operation Sweet Tooth: https://operationsweettooth.org/

  • Trick or Treat

    Halloween stomp,  although no one came in dress…..   regardless good pax and enthusiasm.

    Started work out with typical run 15 out and 15 back.   Most made it to bayou st John Dumaine or Orleans bridge and back.

    Upon getting back to track,  we found a very busy place with high school work outs.  Despite being old we were not intimidated….

    We then embarked on on a repeat 400 journey to the set of 3 with 100 cool down in between.   Most beat their 1st lap time on the 3rd.

    Thereafter some ab work out:

    15 hello dollys

    15 dying cockroaches

    Plank 1:00 or so

    back to flag for countdown, namearama, announcements, intentions and prayer.

    Thanks for the opportunity to lead,  I know I need to do it more.

     

  • 610 Stomp #107

    The Thang

    Two missions:

    1. The Track – 10x Burpees, run a lap (sprint the 100m), 10x Jump Squats
    2. The Refinery – 10x Pullups, 20x Merkins

    Run between each destination when you complete your mission at that AO.

    Gathered the troops around the entrance of the track due to time, but I believe many made it through 3 – 4 times.

    Mosey to the flag, where we held the COT, which included the Countoff, Nameorama, and Prayer.

    Thanks for letting me lead.

  • Stomp and Sprint

    Muggy, Gloomy morning. Typical late summer weather. YHC thought that perhaps the cold snap was going to arrive early, but alas – he was sadly mistaken. Maybe tomorrow. But instead, it was to be another typical summer sweat fest. YHC momentarily felt sorry for his 2.0, as he had chosen to borrow his car this am – since it was last in the driveway. I’d be returning it a bit sweatier and smellier than when I took it. But that brief moment quickly dissipated, as I remembered he was still lying in bed…

    5 Old-timers gathered around the water fountain for a traditional Tuesday morning stomp.  Disclaimer given, even though this group has heard it countless times before.  Then off into the dark down Roosevelt Mall.

    • 15 mins out.  Enjoyed the F2, Amnesty!
    • 15 mins back.  YHC could hear footsteps gaining on him, but was not about to let Hawg catch him.  Thanks for pushing me!

    Back at the track, gather for some Mary and Sprints

    • LBC x25
    • 2 Laps: Sprint Straightaway, Mosey the curves.  LBCs to wait for the 6
    • Flutter Kicks x25
    • 1 Lap: Sprint, Mosey, Sprint, Mosey.  FKs to wait for the 6
    • Dolly x25
    • 1 Sprint then mosey back to the VSF.  Dolly to wait for the 6.  JV seemed to enjoy taking his time.

    Announcements of upcoming CSAUPs.  This Friday at the Uptowner (in Metry) is Tools BDay Q.  Come out for good times!

    Prayers and Intentions: Remember those recovering and assisting in recovery from Harvey.  Blessings upon those about to face Irma.  Blessings for those ill (Fracsac’s father), and for Brady on his first day of school.  Tool: you are a strong example of the family focused man we should all strive to be.

  • 610 Stomp #105

    A light rain made for a cool, comfortable run.  Three men joined me in our daily effort to grow and sharpen the iron.

    The thing: run past the museum, along the bayou for 15 min and turn around.  At the track, OYO, sprint the straight-aways and slow jog/walk the turns until time expires…simple but effective.

    Countoff, namerama, announcements, shoutouts, and a prayer.  No better way to start your day!
