Greetings,
One good way to work is learning a song, the drum song we were introduced too during one of the meetings.
What are the words to that song again?
The GPGPSSR 2008 start date will not change, but the daily run mileage may change as the runners adjust to their running abilities.

Some Minnesota Sioux asked their Chief one Autumn if the winter was going to be a very cold one or a very mild one.
Not really knowing the answer but wanting to be prepared, the chief replies that the winter was going to be cold and that the members of the village were to collect wood to be prepared.
Being a good and responsible leader, he then went to the nearest phone booth and called the National Weather Service and asked, “Is this winter to be cold?” The man on the phone responded, “Yes sir, this winter was going certainly going to be very cold.”
So the Chief went back to speed up his people to collect even more wood to be prepared for this cold Minnesota winter.
A week later, wanting to cover all of his bases, he called the National Weather Service again, “Is it going to be a REALLY cold winter?” “Oh yes,” the man replied, “its going to be a REALLY cold winter.”
So the Chief goes back to his people and orders them to go deep into the forests and find every scrap of wood that they can find. Two weeks later he calls the National Weather Service again and asks “Listen, how can you be so sure that this winter is going to be so cold?” to which the Weather man replies “of COURSE it’s going to be cold, the Sioux have been collecting wood nonstop for weeks!”
