Dawn Patrol 2013 Wants You!
Greetings dear Social Workout friends and Dawn Patrol 2012 vets!
Forgive me for reaching out across time and space, (and into your email Inbox), BUT I thought you might want to know: It's back! Yes, come February 1st, we're once again committing ourselves to rise with the sun for one month. Naturally, we dare you to join us....
Don't let winter shut you down! Dawn is never so special as when sunlight is so precious. And peer pressure is clearly the best alarm clock.
To join up, go here:

Leap Day and Last Call!
Hello Newly Minted Morning People! What a month! We're regrouping here at Social Workout HQ, having shocked our systems pulling off the Brooklyn Bridge patrol this morning. But we wanted to remind you that you have until Noon tomorrow to file your Dawn Patrol catch-up posts. Tomorrow afternoon, we'll send you your hard-earned prize coupons, as well as the official challenge wrap-up, wherein we reflect on early the mornings past, and challenges future....
Speaking of which, tomorrow is a new month, and we've queued up some fresh challenges. The special of the month is the Digital Junkie Challenge, which asks everyone to clean up their anti-social smartphone/cellphone behavior, and generally limit "recreational screen time" to just 60 minutes per day. Some of us know we need this.
There are other excellent group challenges kicking off too, not to mention nearly 700 personal goals, and counting. All relevant links for browsing below. United we stand!
Best,
Dawn Patrol Central Command

Sun, Sun, Sun, Here We Come!
“Sometimes, if you stand on the bottom rail of a bridge and lean over to watch the river slipping slowly away beneath you, you will suddenly know everything there is to be known.” ~ Winnie the Pooh
[The final sunrise of this Dawn Patrol is just a few hours away, and some of us are heading out to mark the occasion on a famous old bridge. Join us in person, or join us in spirit; and celebrate our fabulous collective achievements, not to mention the rare occasion of February 29th. Hope to see you, or to debrief with you later in the day. Meanwhile, sweet dreams!]

Join Us For The Last Dawn Patrol Sun Salute!
Hello Morning People!
We have arrived at Day 28 of the Dawn Patrol! Twenty-eight days ago we were practically different people. Now, we head into March as a stalwart group of early rising troopers. Thank you for getting out of bed, and thank you for sharing your mornings with us.
Tomorrow morning, the small crew from Social Workout HQ will gather to welcome the last Dawn Patrol sunrise and the Leap Year. If you'd like to join us, meet at the center of the Brooklyn Bridge at 6:30 a.m. We'll be waiting for you with hot coffee and morning cheer. If you're not in New York, please celebrate with us from afar. Let's all raise our coffee mugs and tree poses to each other. We're proud of you, and we wouldn't want to wake up this early with any other bunch.
One bit of housekeeping: You have until midnight on Thursday to file any catch-up posts. On Friday we'll be holding our virtual awards ceremony and handing out the prizes you have most definitely earned.
See you tomorrow, sunshine!
Love,
Social Workout

The Round Earth Rolls!
"The grand show is eternal. It is always sunrise somewhere; the dew is never dried all at once; a shower is forever falling; vapor is ever rising. Eternal sunrise, eternal dawn and gloaming, on sea and continents and islands, each in its turn, as the round earth rolls." ~ John Muir

The Sunrise Is Up To You
“I hadn’t been paying much attention to things like the sunrise, but that old sun had been coming up anyway. It didn’t really care how I felt, it was going to rise and set regardless of whether I noticed it, and if I was going to enjoy it, that was up to me.”
~ Jeannette Walls

Mesmerize Yourself
"When I’m in writing mode for a novel, I get up at 4:00 am and work for five to six hours. In the afternoon, I run for 10km or swim for 1500m (or do both), then I read a bit and listen to some music. I go to bed at 9:00 pm. I keep to this routine every day without variation. The repetition itself becomes the important thing; it’s a form of mesmerism." ~ Haruki Murukami
