Apparently you just run, for an extended period of time

I wanted this week to be the official start of TRY, but the weather is going to suppress the numbers again. Oh well, I'm going to make this my funnest blog entry ever anyway. I'll just use the fluff and save the substance. What is TRY? Here is the answer, in two life defining videos:

Yogging.

There is no try. (When 800 years old, you reach, you still won't know everything!)

And yogging is even funnier in a foreign language.

News for the week:

Syracuse Chiefs opening day afternoon -- Wednesday.

No one has signed up for the Celiac Run/Walk? A few of you took part last year, did I lose you?

Three TRY members are heading to Singapore to compete in the Chase Corporate Challenge International Championship. Best of luck to Katie, Kelly, and Kerri! (And Aaron who has to put up with them.) In your honor (and with Ally's HUGE contribution of a song choice) here is a song penned just for you three. I hope it helps you get through your race! It's pretty much the best song written since Friday.

Original lyrics here. (I had no idea these lyrics were so bizarre. So you have to bear with my spoof in some places.) Video here...play it while singing the now better version.

This one is for the Three K's as they travel around the world:

"Singapore Some Water on Me"

Step outside, check the day:

Has it cooled down? No way!

This heat is like a bomb, God c'mon get it down

Running round the world from my radar home

Here cause we're champs, Lion City vamps

San Francisco women, we will kick your fannies.

(Your fannies, hey, hey!)

Thunder 'n' a light-a-ning, a flash a little light

Four Asian Tigers, we will run all night

Sometime, anytime, sneakers on our feet

South-east Asia ain't ready for me

Come on! Take a bottle, shake it up
Break the bubble, break it up

[singa]Pour some water on me, ooh, it's too hot to run

[singa]Pour some water on me, til the race is done

[singa]Pour your water on me, I can't get enough

It's hot, sticky heat, drench my head to my feet, yeah

Glisten. Red tights, yellow tights, green tights, go

Four running women in an Asian show
Mirror queens, mannequins, running for the love

Pre-race stretch-a-ing, loosen up
(Loosen up)
I loosen up

You gotta squeeze a little, push a little, sprint a little more

Separated from Malaysia by the Straights of Johor

Sometime, anytime, sneakers on my feet

South-east Asia ain't ready for me, yeah yeah

Sprint a little more

Take a bottle, shake it up
Break the bubble, break it up

[singa]Pour some water on me, ooh, it's too hot to run

[singa]Pour some water on me, til the race is done
[singa]Pour your water on me, oh, I can't get enough
It's hot, sticky heat: drench my head to my feet, yeah

Here at the races, we brought the dream

Sweet to taste, victory

'Cause it's hot, so hot, sticky heat
(Hot!)
Drench my head, my head to my feet
(Head!)
Do you take water, one cup or two?

Take a bottle, take a bottle
Shake it up, shake it up
Don't chew bubble-gum, near a cop
Near a cop

[singa]Pour some water on me, ooh, it's too hot to run

[singa]Pour some water on me, til the race is Dunn
[singa]Pour your water on me, oh, I can't get enough

[singa]Pour your water on me, oh, it's too hot to run

[singa]Pour some water on me, wet it, come wet it

[singa]Pour your water on me, ooh

[singa]Pour some water on me, yeah

Water me
