On this past gorgeous springtime Saturday morning, Audrey and I ran our first “competitive” running event ever. It was a 5k race to raise awareness for the Clean Air Council. Our buddy Roz organized Team IndyHall Fit Club which included a bunch of blogging buds including Sara and Scott. After our half-assed attempt at pre-run yoga (see evidence below), I pounded a Steaz – I swear to God the strongest energy drink I’ve ever had – and it was off for a mile and a half up West River Drive along the Schuylkill and back.

I have to say, for our first time, we didn’t do half bad:

Feelin’ groovy, just after the race:

And on our way back home, the lot of us decided it would be awesomely cliché of us to run the Philly museum steps (á la Rocky). Fun! Yes, we nerdz.

[thanks for cheering us on and taking awesome photos, Marisa!]
