2026 | Weekly Run Down 19/52 –  I never truly workout alone

Although I am often “physically” alone when I work out, I never truly work out alone because I often connect with Tanja, the #BCBabes¹, occasionally other friends in my Streakers365 group, and with my family. It’s nice to know someone is always just “on the other side of the screen”. This week, I met up with my mom, sister and cousin for a virtual Mother’s Day Run. We couldn’t be together in person, but we were able to connect through our workouts and via FaceTime later.

Monday

• 10 Min Daily Meditation – Denis (4/26/26)

• 10 Min Focus Flow: For Runners – Zacharias (5/1/26) — The Streak
• 30 Min Earth Day Walk – Mariana (4/21/26)

I started my week with a strength workout – a core and a full body strength class. I also enjoyed a yoga flow for runners. During my lunch break, I took Mariana’s Earth Day Walk, and it was lovely. I highly recommend it.  

Tuesday

• 10 Min Relaxing Meditation – Denis (4/7/26)
• 5 Min Get to Know Me Warm Up Ride – Olivia (5/25/25)
• 45 Min Power Zone Endurance Ride – Olivia (5/4/25) — Boost Your Base
• 5 Min Post Ride Stretch – Olivia (1/21/25)
• 5 Min Core Strength – Ben (5/1/26) — Core in Full Bloom/Blooming for Movement
• 10 Min Savasana Yoga – Denis (5/20/22) — The Streak

I spent my morning with Olivia with a warm up, a 45-minute Power Zone Endurance ride, and a cool down.  I also did a quick core strength class and a savasana yoga session in the evening. 

Wednesday

• 10 Min Calming Meditation – Anna (10/14/25) — Blooming into Self Care
• 10 Min Standing Core – Rebecca (9/11/24) — Core in Full Bloom
• 20 Min Chest & Back Strength – Ben (4/21/26) — Blooming for Movement
• 10 Min Focus Flow: Hamstrings – Anna (6/18/24) — The Streak

Today was for some core, chest & back strength. I think I’ll be a little sore tomorrow. 

Thursday

• 10 Min Patience Meditation – Kristin (4/13/23) — Blooming for Self Care
• 5 Min Pre-Run Warm Up – Matt (5/14/25)
• 30 Min Pop Run – Adrian (1/8/23) — Blooming for Movement
• 10 Min Focus Flow: For Runners – Kristin (6/7/23) — The Streak
• 53 Min Outdoor Walking

It’s light enough in the morning for me to go for a run outdoors, and today I finally made it out the door at 6:15 a.m. I only had time for a quick 30-minute run and a quick yoga flow, but I am glad I made it outside. The early mornings are so beautiful right now. 

I also went for a nice lunchtime walk with my co-worker later in the day. 

Friday

• 10 Min Mental Health Meditation – Anna (5/19/23) — Blooming for Self-Care
• 5 Min Warm Up Ride – Denis (9/5/23)
• 45 Min Power Zone Endurance Ride – Christian (5/6/25) — Boost Your Base
• 5 Min Cool Down Ride – Matt (4/17/24)
• 10 Min Focus Flow: For Riders – Denis (2/25/25) — The Streak

I slept in this morning (my body craved rest) and only did a morning meditation after I woke up, but motivation hit me in the late afternoon, and I hopped on the bike for a 45-minute Power Zone Endurance Ride. There were some long Zone 3 intervals, and I struggled a bit at the end, but I did finish the class. I definitely needed that cool down ride to catch my breath and the focus flow for riders to stretch my muscles afterwards.

Saturday

• 30 Min Bootcamp – Jess S (4/28/26)
• 5 Min Cool Down Ride – Bradley (1/1/26)
• 30 Min Mental Health Awareness Slow Flow – Anna (5/21/24) — Blooming into Self Care
• 10 Min Core Strength – Callie (6/20/25) — Core in Full Bloom

My friend and fellow BCBabe Sherry, who is also one of the admins in our Streakers365 Group, scheduled a Swarm Bootcamp for this morning, and of course, I had to join! It was a sweaty, but good workout with Jess Sims. I also added a Mental Health Awareness Flow and 10 minutes of core strength to my stack. 

Sunday

• 5 Min Pre-Run Warm Up – Matt (514/25)
• 45 Min 90s Run – Adrian (8/12/25) — Blooming for Movement

I coordinated with my mom, sister and cousin today that we’d do a virtual Mother’s Day Run together. It didn’t quite work out to do it at the exact same time (the time difference can make things difficult), but we all committed to moving our body #separatebuttogether today! I loved connecting this way with them on Mother’s Day!

I also joined some Streakers365 peeps for Serenity Sunday in the afternoon. I love this little self care ritual to wrap up my weekend!

• 20 Min Restorative – Anna (12/17/20) — The Streak/Serenity Sunday
• 10 Min Patience Meditation – Kristin (1/26/23) — Blooming into Self Care/Serenity Sunday
