I'd probably use cron, but here's one way.

import sched
import time

scheduler = sched.scheduler(time.time, time.sleep)

def print_event(count,rescheduler):
         print 'EVENT:', time.time(), count
         rescheduler.enter(2,1,print_event,(count+1,rescheduler))

print 'START:', time.time()
scheduler.enter(2, 1, print_event, (1,scheduler))

scheduler.run()
