Scottsdale Fit City 5K and Expo

by Dru Bloomfield on January 25, 2010

Clear morning in Scottsdale

The weather cleared Saturday for the 2nd annual Scottsdale Fit City Kickoff at the Civic Center Mall.  The 5K Race / Walk was a first, and the mostly flat course was adjusted to workaround the flooding on Osborn.  The day was absolutely beautiful, sunny, clear blue sky, and cool crisp air.  Besides the run, there were many booths, featuring products and services for people of all ages interested in fitness, health and wellness.

Mayor Jim Lane issued a Fit City proclamation and handed out awards to the top race finishers. Many other local city, school, and business leaders were in attendance, too.  The crowd was really friendly and very relaxed.  I ran into a few people I hadn’t seen in awhile, plus got a great training tip from James, a trainer at Pulse Fitness, located in North Scottsdale.

Fun morning.  I’m looking forward to next year’s event  already!
