You go ahead and relax. I ain't got time for that!

I'd like to say that it's bright and early. But I can't do that because it is only early. Very very early. Dark and early.

We are loaded up and about to head on out and over to Long Beach for the 34th Long Beach Marathon and our 8th personal time riding in the Long Beach Marathon Bike Tour! WooHoo to us! 

Anyhow, more on the Marathon tomorrow in the Daily Scoop.

As for today's Daily Scoop, it is all about yesterday...

Oh what a life! Oh what a weekend! Oh was it all done in a day?!

From the Tustin Tiller Days Parade then off to a Soccer game “GOOOO Mika!”. But wait, that's not all, I still had to go to the Long Beach Health Faire (had to pick up our bibs for todays Marathon Bike tour), then it was home (with a few stops in between) to watch the MLB ALDS “GOOOO Yankees!”.  

Yes that was all in a day. I know that I don't always go into all of my daily craziness when I'm local, but I do always stress the fact that I tend to keep quite busy.

I'm always running around doing something and then some, because "something" was just not enough for a gal like me.

I think you get the picture. Either that or I've confused you even more. But whichever it is. I better stop here, show you some pictures and then get to the start line.

Oh yeah and what made my night was that the Yankees won! Now the series is tied 1 game a piece, in a best of 5 series.

Time to bring it home to the Bronx and finish the Red Sox off!  Sorry Boston, you know I love your city; just not your teams. 

Enough already. I need to go pedal.
