What would you think if I sang out of tune,
Would you stand up and walk out on me.
Lend me your ears and I'll sing you a song,
And I'll try not to sing out of key.
I get by with a little help from my friends,
I get high with a little help from my friends,
Going to try with a little help from my friends.
What do I do when my love is away.
(does it worry you to be alone)
How do I feel by the end of the day
(are you sad because you're on your own)
No I get by with a little help from my friends,
Do you need anybody,
I need somebody to love.
Could it be anybody
I want somebody to love.
Would you believe in a love at first sight,
Yes I'm certain that it happens all the time.
What do you see when you turn out the light,
I can't tell you, but I know it's mine.
Oh I get by with a little help from my friends,
Do you need anybody,
I just need someone to love,
Could it be anybody,
I want somebody to love.
I get by with a little help from my friends,
Yes I get by with a little help from my friends,
With a little help from my friends.

I'll run later, but I thought that since I've got your attention, I'd bring up the fact that it is now less than a month until the Run Across Alabama for Elliott begins.  Check out the website at:

Very poignant entry today from Elliott's mom Liza.

As one who can attest to the character of the entire Schotz family, please keep them in your thoughts and prayers.

Time for another shameless plug for the Run Across Alabama for Elliott.  The run finishes up one month from today at the Alabama-Mississippi State Line just west of Red Bay, Alabama, at which point Eric Schotz, Jon Elmore, and Eric Charette will have run 183 miles over the course of four days across AL (I will only be running a paltry 75 or so miles over the course of the last two days).

If you are unfamiliar with the event, it is for a great cause, benefiting the research of a heartbreaking childhood disease.  Check out the website:

Some days you just aren't feeling it, and that was today for me, but reading Holt and Crockett's reports on the Squaw Peak 50 was just what I needed to see to get my lazy bum in gear.

Since it's fast approaching, I guess I'll take a cue from Schotz and Elmore and start up a countdown until the start of the Run Across Alabama for Elliott, so here is the first installment thereof:

There is a real-time tracking of where the group is updating every couple of minutes as of now...

 

1 day until the start of:       http://www.runacrossalabama.com   

The Run Across Alabama for Elliott starts tomorrow with Eric Schotz, Jon Elmore, and Eric Charette heading from Menton, AL to Guntersville, AL, covering a distance of around 55 miles.  The next day, they'll be heading from Guntersville to Hartselle, AL, which is where I will meet up with them for Friday and Saturday's runs.

If you get the chance, throw up a little prayer for them, and head over to their blogs at:

schotz.fastrunningblog.com

jelmo.fastrunningblog.com

siriusultrarunner.blogspot.com

to wish them luck.

God's speed, guys...
