One of the best things about blogging is the community and in Seattle we have a strong, vibrant, beautiful collection of bloggers that truly support one another on a daily basis. So when Flywheel & ZICO Coconut Water approached me about co-hosting an influencer event (to include bloggers, photographers and a few media friends in the wellness biz), I was first, undeniably honored, and second, completely ecstatic. Anytime there’s an event and I get facetime with these lovely babes – I always leave feeling inspired and encouraged. And being able to share a (very sweaty) workout and delicious lunch is just icing on the cake.
This is post-Fly! Look at this gorgeous bunch!
We kicked off the soiree with a Fly 45 class…
Our signature workout. Fly 45 is a 45-minute high-energy, motivating ride that incorporates interval training, races and rhythm riding, an upper-body series and real-time performance tracking with our signature tech-pack and optional TorqBoard participation. The class ends with an effective, calming stretch, leaving you feeling stronger, de-stressed and supercharged. – FlywheelSports.com
Most of the guests had never tried a Flywheel class – which is exactly why it was a perfect event! You know I am always down to try something new and want to encourage other’s to do the same. And Flywheel is one of my favorite workouts – it’s intense, exhilarating, face-paced and will give you a crazy high (not to mention gorgeous glow).
Post-Fly we refueled with ZICO Coconut Water, Green Smoothies (made with ZICO), and lunch from Chef by Request!
