BigBird & Snuffy were no shows this morning but had an excused absence… something about a baby being born? Congrats Grandpa Snuff & Uncle Bird! Feeling lost without BigBird, Seatdown, Drone, Pyro, Whiff, Jumanji, Septum and the “Fastholes”, Bing and I decided to journey to Stagecoach for some running & active recovery exercises. We attacked […]
6 hard chargers posted this morning at Kessel Run to start their week off right. Luckily for us the humidity was only at about 150% this morning so we had a little reprieve. It was a rare occasion that YHC made it to the AO early enough that I did not have to Slack the […]
3 hard charging Pax posted for a post Gate River Run beat down Kessel Run style. YHC had promised to take it easy on our legs that had been ravaged by the Green Monster. I could see the trepidation in Bower’s eyes as I exited my vehicle and prepared myself for our run, but he […]
Spartan Tough 3 – KesselRun 2017.12.04 Keeping December’s Core Value in mind, “We are disciplined, intentional, and gritty during the never ending work to get better, not relying on the fickle emotion of motivation”, YHC set up a boring, grueling beatdown today. With our next OCR coming up in 2 weeks, it seemed like a […]
Spartan Tough 2 – KesselRun 2017.11.20 A crisp 45 degrees didn’t warrant sleeves for Drone but did seem to keep a few brothers in bed this morning – Extra T-Claps to Feud for making his maiden post. Still 5 strong, we went ahead and got after it. The obstacle course theme continues as YHC keeps […]
YHC and many of the PAX have put some $$ down for some upcoming obstacle course races, so we might as well prep for them. Contrary to the misguided accusations that YHC was planning Kessel w/os to increase attendance, the goal is always the same… plan something that keeps us moving and pushes our cardio […]
The battle over who would Q Kessel but yours truly won the fight by shear cunning! CONDITIONS Seven Pax embarked on a journey to “The Stein” under the waning Crescent moon (w 11% illumination). The humidity was there as a gentle reminder that we live in Florida WARM UP Trip around Friendship Fountain – The […]
A record breaking (I think) 8 PAX rolled up to once again tackle the mountain and vie for the Billy GOAT crown. A ridiculously painful beat down that challenges each PAX to conquer and re-conquer a half mile ascent that leaves you 80 feet higher than you started; with some exercises at the base for […]
YHC felt like testing fate by visiting Stagecoach with five Kessel pax for an upper body funfest. Fortunately, the parking garage gods smiled on us, and we went two full circuits with no interruptions. We also didn’t have to swim through the streets, which would have been the case on both banks of the river […]
Humidity was thick, support was low, but we ran fast any way. Nothing better to introduce a FNG to #KesselRun than a tour of hills. And since we don’t have any hills we did bridges and any other incline that was around. Welcome and Disclaimer: Warm Up – .5 mi warm up toward […]
