Hours after completing her first-ever triathlon (she finished in 2 hours, 23 minutes), Jennifer Lopez got glam again.

She flew to New York City with husband Marc Anthony to celebrate his 40th birthday at the Bowery Hotel.

Party guests included Dita Von Teese and Kimora Lee Simmons.

Anthony turns the big 4-0 on Tuesday.

Lopez – who turned 39 in July — was all smiles, donning a white, empire-waist Marchesa gown on her way into the celebration. (By the time she left, she had changed into a taupe, silk frock.)

Of course, Lopez had another reason to celebrate Sunday: She helped raise $127,000 for the Children's Hospital of L.A. (Overall, the race earned $950,000 for charity.)

See how other stars get fit.

"I feel really great and so glad I finished and that I made it out of the water but more amazing than that, I feel really great that we raised $127,000 for the Children's Hospital [of Los Angeles] and hopefully it'll go to good use," Lopez told the crowd after finishing.

Throughout the race, Anthony stood at the sidelines cheering on his wife. Lopez even stopped to kiss him between the biking and running portions of the race.
