Although my bridesmaids and I did our share of drinking on Friday, we set out to burn some calories first thing Saturday morning.

I don’t think there’s anything better than working out with your friends and truly wished they all lived here in DC (and my family!!).  Becky’s and my friendship actually blossomed while training for a half marathon with Team in Training back in 2009, so working out on Saturday brought back a lot of fond memories of our runs together.

On the agenda for the morning was Jillian Michael’s 30 Day Shred, Power 90 Ab Ripper, and a hike.

I have never done the 30 Day Shred for 30 days straight but LOVE doing the workout here and there!  I’d really like do it for a full 30 days one of these months.

The workout is just 20 minutes long, combining cardio, strength, and abs.

After The Shred we did the Power 90 Ab Ripper which was essentially 200 more ab moves.  We were sooo ready to be done by move 180!  After that we headed out for a hike.

The air was cool and crisp but the sun was hot.  What month is it again?

The morning was perfect and a fantastic way to start off day two of the bridesmaid’s weekend…
