Another great My Father on an absolutely beautiful Texas night.

Happy Friday gents!
I've been slacking on posting workouts, but I have been keeping up w/ the training.

I've done two long Sat runs of 10 and 11 m. Still a little off pace for the goal of a 2.30 1/2 marathon, but I am going to be focusing more on some Z2 training runs. I've adjusted my plan to stay in this zone, just might take a little longer to hit the mile goals.

4wks out for the Nola Turkey Trot (5m)
17wks out for the Cowtown 1/2 marathon.

I hope everyone has a great week of running.

My cousin lives in NYC and said it is a blast on gamedays. He said they throw one of the best watch parties for the LSU games. Enjoy, and hopefully it's a Tigers victory party afterwards.

Also, hit up Mama's Too for a great slice of pizza while you are there.

The weather has finally started to turn in Texas! I didn't get a pic of them but I had 3 great cigars 2 Perdomos and one of the new Bocock Brothers with my ole man last weekend in KY for the LSU game. It was the 1st time in a while we got to sit back, burn one down and chat.

Went with a My Father and a Michters 10yr old Rye. Happy Friday gents!

Still have some Tiger Stadium turf in a cup from that night.


I still have the pylon from the back corner of the endzone in my office. That was the 1st game I went to as student and got there early to sit in the first few rows.

Also he dropped the phrase "hands up don't shoot" while neither of his hands were up.
I don't think I was in a Z2 for this run, but I am just starting to train. Especially at the end mile 7.5 it was tough.

Training for last week
Tue-4.01m/141avg HR/12.29 avg pace
Thur- 4.85m/135 avg HR/14.20 avg pace (treadmill)
Sat-9.02m/139 avg HR/12.43 agg pace (treadmill d/t rain)

Goal is the Cowton 1/2 Marathon in Feb.
Did my first real long run in training for a 1/2 Marathon.


8.40/13:08 pace/ avg HR 160bpm

We finished the last night and when I saw that, I told my wife the exact same thing. The would probably be free not if she let them attorneys do their job.

Also, I surprised that no one mapped out the route from her house to the victims house an back. What would that that be in both time and gas with her car. Could she have filled up the day before, plus the extra tanks driven there, and back? Surely you could have then also checked bank statements for the days after to see if she filled up again? Or searched nearby gas stations to see if she was on tape filling up again.

Finally a nice Friday night that isn't over 98 degrees. Enjoying this one after a rough and long week.
Happy Friday gents!
Tuesday Run 4.26 13:15 pace/146bpm.

It was a hot one again, but it feels like it's getting a little easier to run. I'm training for the Cowtown 1/2 Marathon in Feb. It will be my 2nd 1/2 and the 1st one in about 11yrs.
Multiple players have stated that no will be "kicked off" the team to make room for these players.

Also, this is a one off for a few 100 players maybe. Moving forward you have 5 yrs to play and there are no more medical redshirt/hardships if you get hurt or have a "cold" and have to sit out. The NCAA knew this would happen and thought it would help them pass the save sports act that's why they didn't grant a one time exception for these players.

Well hell looks like I am going to have to buy another box. I bought the one for the 2025 Baseball Natty and I really do enjoy this brand.



The B&M by my office finally got these in. So far it's been a great one, and might get throw in the rotation. Happy Friday gents.

I usually just wait until after the LSU game to light one up. Unless it's a blow out and then all bets are off.

Buenos Aires in November

Posted by gringeaux on 6/16/26 at 3:22 pm
Heading down to Buenos Aires and then to Cordoba to dove hunt for 3 day and then back for a few days. What are some can't miss things? Is there a certain area that is better to stay in?
TIA
