Ok, so I lied. I ran up the stairs of the Philadelphia Museum of Art and acted just like Rocky. I couldn’t help myself!

This photo was actually taken next to the “Rocky Steps,” but I’m sure you can imagine my excitement!


Rocky!

Jenna and I participated in Sabrina’s bootcamp class this evening. It was an awesome full body workout! And we got to run up and down the stairs a bunch of times, so I was a happy (and sweaty) camper!


Before bootcamp, I ate a slice of pizza and drank half of an iced coffee at the airport. Let’s just say it wasn’t the best choice before a workout.

Shower then dinner out on the town!

Fun! We went to Philly on a class trip and everyone ran up. Parts of the city are really nice. Have a good night!
I love running up (or walking too) those steps! My husband used to live there so we would do it when I would go down there. Have fun I love Philly!
you’re so bad ass!
That looks like a lot of fun running up the stairs. I love working out in groups and bringing it outside must have been fun!
I did the same thing while we were in Philly for the marathon–totally not ashamed!
I’ve always wanted to run up those stairs
Have a great dinner!
I love how you workout on the same day you travel, I could never do that.

I think everyone who visits Philly has to do the Rocky pose on the steps. It’s almost a requirement if you go there!
So fun! Stairs are a great way to switch things up!
How fun! Did you jump around when you got to the top. I feel like my friends and I always run up buildings with lots of steps and jump around just for the fun of it
So fun! Love Philly

Tina! I’m a loyal follower (of all your blogs!), and I’m trying to find your 3-minute oatmeal cookie recipe, but I cant seem to!
Would you mind re-posting the link on honor of Cookie Friday? or maybe you could just email me the link to your recipe? (fraisesdubois@gmail.com)
Happy upcoming weekend!

Hi Tina!
I have recently lost 70lbs, and for to long I lived in fear of gaining even one lbs of that weight back. You have inspired me, daily, to eat a healthy balanced diet, and to HAVE FUN! You are an amazing romodel and woman and I love your blog. Thank you for your daily dedication!
So awesome!!! I was born and raise on the East coast, living in NY and Boston and have NEVER been to Philly! Well, technically I have but it doesn’t count.
I want to run up those stairs!
That pistachio pizza looks amazing! I need to find something like that in my neck of the woods. I’ve always wanted to check out Philly, looks like a great trip so far!
Haha…I TOTALLY would have done that too!!! No worries!
Welcomeee! We used to have to run those in high school for track and xc practice. Brutalll!
I ran those steps when I visited Philly too. And then I went and stuffed my face with cheese steaks.
