Wordless Wednesday Workout Fiend & New Blog


Ok, so first off, you probably noticed my blog looks a little different. I had a blog makeover and need to thank the wonderfully talented Stephanie of Dirt and Lace for all her hard work.  She also created my author blog look at Kori Donahue.  It was so much fun to work with her and change things up a bit.  I'm thrilled with how it turned out.  What do you think?

Moving right along, today is Wordless (Semi) Wednesday, and I know I'm talking quite a bit, but I'm linking up with the fabulous Daphne of Flip Flops and Pearls.  Head over and join us!

Since I'm on kind of a new workout kick (loving it!) I decided for today's post to include some images that would hopefully inspire me and others to get healthy and moving.  Do you workout?  What are your secrets?  Any workouts you hate?  Have a great day friends!

I love yoga as a work out. It's also really helping me focus and keep strong during my pregnancy.

Love love love the new look! My main thrill in life is a makeover. ;)

I love classes from Zumba to kickboxing to yoga. I keep trying to like running, but I have a hard time enjoying it. (I even ran cross country in high school and never liked the running part.) Ha.

I love your new design!

I hate to workout, the most I do is walk my dogs which is probably why I've gotten a little soft.
But I bought a bike today so I can ride it to work, hopefully that will help me look like the girls in the pictures!

Amber said...

I love your new look, of course!

I also love the Jillian quote at the end, she's so hardcore!

Hi Kori!!!

Love the new look! As for the workout stuff, it's cool, but also laying a 'guilt trip' on me, with all the weight stuff I have collecting dust in the garage, and the elliptical trainer I use for a clothes rack now :-( Hey, maybe I will jump back on the 'pain train' soon, tho...
Hope you are having an incredible week, and a killer Independence Day Weekend!!!

KIG, Kori!!!
