working out your friends is fun

This past weekend I took a trip to the Hamptons to celebrate a very special girls birthday! We only had one FULL day there, so we made it an eventful one. Per the birthday girls request (and my obvious excitement toward this request), we started the morning off with a wonderful beach workout! I LOVE beach workouts. It's nice to sweat from the sun and get cooled down by the breeze from the ocean. Exercises are much more difficult in the sand. Ever try running in the sand? Our beach workout looked like this:

We had the man next to us take some pictures. He was snapping shots like no other, then all of a sudden his sun umbrella flew away! He was able to save his umbrella, not to mention the camera was still safely in his hand!  Thank you Mr. Camera Man!

Later that day we went to a local farmers market and bought locally grown fruits/veggies and made a FANTASTIC dinner. Next blog (coming soon) will focus on the food part of our adventure in the Hamptons!
