Me and Nic lift in the morning and run. Practicing with Joel and those guys helps a lot.

Just little things they do—like getting up and making the coffee every morning—helps. But they are working, too. They come in and lighten the load just by sharing the load.

Some guys say it helps and some guys say it doesn't, I don't know. We're all in the same boat, walking around huffing and coughing.

Dre wouldn't run away. He's not that type of kid.

We feel good about ourselves. We're getting a lift from different guys on different nights and everyone's kind of doing their part.

Everybody's after a new morning. What do we have to run up and salute tomorrow?
