Sometimes, after a killer workout, all you want is a nice cold drink, and we’re not talkin’ water. Lucky for you, you’ve got plenty of options when it comes to getting your boozy workout on around Philly — some of these workouts’ sole goal is to run to booze. Efficient, right? Below, six Philly workouts where you’ll get your sweat and drink on.

What: Brandywine Yoga and Wine Sundays
Where: Galer Estate Vineyard and Winery, 700 Folly Hill Road, Kennett Square
When: Sundays from 12 to 2:30 p.m., now through September 13th
What to expect: Make your way out to this this gorgeous Chester County winery for a relaxing yoga sesh followed by a tasting of five wines and some light, healthy snacking. Because life is all about balance, right?

What: Fishtown Beer Runners
Where: 2346 East Susquehanna Avenue, Fishtown
When: Thursdays at 7 p.m. every week
What to expect: Calling all beer lovers! This weekly running group is for you. Meet up with fellow runners and head off for a three- to five-mile run to a different pub or tavern each week — one with some good beer, of course!

What: Champagne Sundays
Where: Ploome, 1040 North American Street, Suite 1001, Northern Liberties
When: Every first and third Sunday of the month.
What to expect: Spend your Sundays at Ploome participating in a host of fun classes like Spin Off (pilates with hula hoops and fire fans) and Bottoms Up Booty Camp (glutes-focused Pilates), and afterward,  enjoy cocktails and champagne to celebrate your awesome workout. So much more productive than just brunching, right?
