+== How to initialize the loop before workers run?
+
+You can run initialization code before starting loop workers by implementing the initialize_loop class method.  If
+initialize_loop raises an error, then the loop is not started and the error is logged.
+
+    class HelloWorldLoop < Loops::Base
+      def self.initialize_loop(config)

+          debug("Hello, debug log!")
