HealthWorks hosted a party for Boston Bloggers!
The party was held last night: A spin class, amazing goodie bag, cocktails at Alibi, and awesome bloggers…it was so much fun!
I want to say my thank yous before writing the post: Judith and Hannah from HealthWorks rock for planning such a great event for so many amazing bloggers.
Thank you to RIPE, Doublecross Vodka, Alibi @ the Liberty Hotel, Pop Chips, siggi’s, Vitacoco, City Sports, Mad Hectic Oatmeal, Skin Health, Luna Bars, Zyrra Bras, the South End Athletic Company, eversave.com, Rock Paper Scissors salon, and everyone else who contributed to the goodie bags and the event.
I arrived early, signed in, and grabbed my goodie bag.
I also enjoyed a pre-workout mocktail from RIPE.
Boston’s Best Group Fitness Instructor Eden kicked some blogger ass during spin class!
I was dying after 5 minutes. And sweating buckets too! We did lots of sprints and jumps. Eden’s high energy and dancing kept me going. She never gave us a break. Intense from start to finish! I haven’t worked so hard in such a long time. Eden’s spin class was 10 times harder than running a Half Marathon. Maybe I should check the schedule and see if I can attend her classes more often!
I went home to shower and met the bloggers back at HW. Then our group of lovely ladies headed to the Liberty Hotel. It was like a Sex and the City field trip. (Tina took great photos of the walk/T ride to the Liberty!)
RIPE and Doublecross Vodka were ready for us as soon as we arrived at Alibi. They offered so many cocktail options. I wish I could’ve tried more drinks, but I would’ve ended up flat on the floor. 
Hannah and Judith worked hard all night. Gotta keep the bloggers happy!
We chowed down on tons of appetizer pizzas. Spin class will make a blogger really really hungry!
Spin class will also make a blogger really thirsty. 
Raspberry cocktail! A little too sugary sweet for me, but it was tasty.
I tried another slice of pizza. I don’t know what all of the ingredients were, but there definitely was prosciutto, cinnamon, and a slice of green apple. Mmm!
Strawberry and basil cocktail with RIPE sour mix.
My favorite of the night! I even ordered a 2nd drink. It was so light and refreshing. It tasted like liquid summer. So good. 3 drinks and I was definitely feeling it. 
Emily, me, Ali, and Tina hanging out at Alibi.
I wish I had snapped more photos, but I was too busy talking!
Leslie was the Out of Town Celebrity of the night. It was great to meet her. We were meant to be friends…and roommates at the Healthy Living Summit!
I convinced Jared to meet me at the Liberty so we could walk home together. We stopped for a drink at a bar on Charles Street before continuing our evening stroll.
I was tipsy and thought I could take *amazing* nighttime photos. Umm, not so much.
Miles was thankful when both of his dog parents arrived home. I stayed awake long enough to watch the Office on DVR before I had to call it a night.
Can HealthWorks host Blogger Bashes every few months?

What a fun night! I just joined the Healthworks two months ago, and it’s so much more than a gym.
I just started reading your blog (thanks to a Healthworks newsletter), am a BC alumna, and actually attended the BC alumni running club at SEAC last month… it was so fun!
