2026 | Weekly Run Down 21/52 –  Decompress

I’ve been taking it really easy this week (no cardio) and have been doing a lot of walking, yoga and meditation. I am not sure yet how long I will take a break from running and cycling. I mean, logically I know that I am probably ok to run, but I am trying to put less pressure on myself to do *everything* all the time, so taking a slower approach for a little bit – with more yoga and walking – probably cannot hurt. 

Monday

• 30 Min Pop Walk – Adrian (8/4/21) — Focus Tracker
• 45 Min 90s Walk – Jon (3/19/26)
• 20 Min Pool Swimming

• 10 Min Savasana – Kirra (6/26/24) — The Streak

I took a walk (to the local park + rose garden) and then to the pool in the afternoon because the weather was glorious.

Tuesday

• 10 Min Breathing Meditation – Anna (3/17/26)

• 15 Min 90s Pop Walk – Jon (9/16/25) 
• 10 Min Restorative – Denis (3/27/26) — The Streak

I had an easy and relaxing day at home. I slept in and only did a meditation in the morning. I also took a little after-dinner walk around our neighborhood, and I think I might make that a new thing. It’s nice to move around a little bit after eating, and it stays light longer, and the temps have just been so pleasant. 

Wednesday

• 15 Min Morning Yoga Flow – Chelsea (10/24/21) — The Streak
• 10 Min Core Strength – Emma (12/16/21) — Core in Full Bloom

• 5 Min Warm Up Walk – Kirsten (3/28/24) — Blooming in Self Care
• 30 Min Outdoor Walk

• 15 Min 90s Walk – Adrian (4/1/25) — Blooming for Movement/Focus Tracker
• 10 Min Sleep Meditation – Anna (5/23/24)

I took another post-dinner walk and really enjoyed Anna’s sleep meditation. 

Thursday

• 20 Min Morning Slow Flow – Anna (3/5/26) — The Streak/Blooming in Self Care
• 10 Min Barre: Core – Leanne (7/15/25) — Core in Full Bloom

• 20 Min 80s Walk – Susie (5/15/26) — Blooming for Movement

• 15 Min 90s Walk – Rebecca (2/10/29) — Focus Tracker

If you’re looking for a nice little slow morning flow, bookmark this one with Anna. It was a really nice and gentle way to get moving this morning. I also went for a 20-minute lunchtime walk, and another after-dinner walk in the evening. I usually do the bulk of my workouts in the morning, but it’s nice to spread out movement throughout the day.

Friday

• 20 Min Focus Flow: Core – Kristin (3/16/22) — The Streak/Core in Full Bloom
• 5 Min Core Stretch – Emma (1/7/22) — Blooming in Self Care
  
• 15 Min 80s Rock Walk – Jon (2/4/25)

I worked today (as you might remember, I am usually off on Fridays, but I made up a day from earlier this week), so I was up earlier than usual. I had scheduled a little yoga core session before work, and I was so thrilled when Michelle (YAY!) popped into my yoga class and joined me! It’s always more fun to work out with friends! 

Saturday

• 10 Min Yoga Flow – Denis (5/19/26) — The Streak
• 5 Min Full Body Strength Warm Up – Robin (12/30/21) — Blooming into Self Care
• 10 Min Core Strength – Robin (1/2/26) — Core in Full Bloom/Blooming for Movement
• 5 Min Core Stretch – Rebecca (1/9/23)
  
• 15 Min R & B Walk – Joslyn (1/6/26) — Focus Tracker

I really enjoyed Denis’ yoga flow and Joslyn’s R&B Walk after dinner.

Sunday

• 10 Min Pilates – Rebecca (4/26/26) — Blooming for Movement/Core in Full Bloom
• 20 Min Restorative – Kirra (11/2/23) — Serenity Sunday/The Streak
• 10 Min Peace Meditation – Ross (12/10/23) — Serenity Sunday
• 15 Min 90s Walk – Jess K (8/10/23)

I did a Pilates class in the afternoon and then joined the Streakers for Serenity Sunday – yoga and meditation. I also took my after-dinner walk around the neighborhood.
