Race Day In Instagrams

We've been blogging about it a lot lately but in case you've missed the memo, the Spatularettes and our best friend Pam  are deep into the training cycle for our next marathons (half marathon for Smally).  Pam and I decided it was time to test our fitness level and signed up for today's Rock N Roll Philadelphia Half Marathon.  We've had the most incredibly beautiful weather here in Philadelphia lately and today was no exception.  The race conditions were perfect and helped push us to run some of our best times!  What else helped power us through the miles this morning?  Ummmmm, what else but the Pre-Race Power Dinner we made at my apartment last night.  Check back tomorrow for the recipes... we promise you are not  going to want to miss these!!  Until then, we leave you with Race Day In Instagrams..

Pre-Race Fuel

Ready to go in our matching uniforms.
We spent a lot of time debating if we looked like bad asses or dorks.

A successful day for The Spatularettes.

We used to celebrate victories in liquid form.
Now we turn to homemade pumpkin sugar cookies.

Finisher medals and finisher treats :)
