ChiRunning Retreat with Stine Turgeon

Rediscover Your Power: Run Aligned Retreat in Wyoming

2025 Dates: July 20-25

Step into a new chapter of movement, where strength isn't about shrinking, but about expanding. Join us on a transformative 6-day Run Aligned Retreat in the heart of Wyoming, where we redefine movement and reclaim our joy—at any age.

For too long, women have been told that exercise is about shrinking, about burning calories to achieve an ideal. But what if movement could be about something more? What if it could be about celebrating the power of our bodies, embracing our strength, and finding joy in every step, whether that's walking, running, or simply exploring the outdoors?

Like many of you, I, Stine Turgeon, host of the Run Aligned Retreat, have journeyed through that mindset. I understand the frustration of feeling limited by your body, whether it's aching joints, slow speeds, or simply feeling disconnected from the joy of movement. But I also know that movement—in all its forms—can be a source of incredible joy and empowerment.

This retreat isn't about chasing unattainable fitness goals or punishing our bodies. It's about rewriting the narrative. It's about embracing our strength, finding joy in movement, and reclaiming our bodies as powerful vessels of longevity and well-being.

Join me in Wyoming, at the base of the majestic Bighorn Mountains, where we'll explore how movement can be a source of inspiration and joy, not limitation. We'll learn mindful movement techniques, including ChiRunning, that focus on alignment and efficiency, allowing us to move with ease and grace.

This retreat offers:

Exploration of stunning landscapes: Whether you walk or run, experience the breathtaking beauty of Wyoming and reconnect with the joy of moving outdoors.
Mindful movement instruction: Learn techniques to move with greater ease and efficiency, tailored to your body and your goals.
Mind-body connection: Discover tools to create a deeper connection with yourself and your movement.

A supportive community: Connect with a small group of women who share your desire to embrace strength and joy in movement.

This is more than just a fitness retreat. It's an opportunity to reclaim your power, embrace your strength, and discover the joy of movement in a way that honors your body and empowers your soul. This is about taking up space, not shrinking it. This is about longevity, not limitations.

Join us in Wyoming and embark on a journey to rediscover your joy of movement—whatever that looks like for you.

Welcome to My Hometown: Where Adventure Meets Tranquility

Join me in my hometown of Ten Sleep, Wyoming - a picturesque small, Western town of just 234 people. Located in north central WY, we are ideally situated at the foothills of the majestic Bighorn Mountains for an unforgettable movement and mindfulness retreat experience.

This isn't just a retreat; it's an immersion into a lifestyle that celebrates strength, joy, and connection. We'll explore the stunning landscapes that have shaped my own journey, embracing movement as a source of empowerment and well-being.

Here’s a taste of what awaits you:

Movement Exploration: Enjoy 3 morning walks or runs (3.5-7 miles, adaptable to all levels) at elevations ranging from 4400’ to 7700’. Experience movement free from expectations, focusing on mindfulness and connection. Enhance your movement with our half-day mindful movement form workshop.

Mindfulness Practices: The retreats feature carefully curated mindfulness activities to support a complete mind-body experience, fostering a deeper connection with yourself and your movement.

Adventures in Nature: Daily excursions to the surrounding areas

Sunset excursion to Castle Gardens, a sandstone ‘forest’ 7 miles south of Ten Sleep, where ancient landscapes inspire awe.
An afternoon of paddle boarding/kayaking on Meadowlark Lake, a serene mountain lake, where you can find peace on the water.
An afternoon soak in natural hot springs in Thermopolis, where the healing waters soothe body and soul.

To get a deeper understanding of the retreat experience, I encourage you to listen to episode 104 of My Runner’s Mind Podcast for of My Runner’s Mind Podcast for an inside look.

After six days, you will feel renewed, relaxed, energized, and you will make some lifelong friends. And most importantly, you’ll finally feel joyful and love moving again, in a way that honors your body and empowers your spirit. This is about reclaiming your joy, your strength, and your connection to yourself and the world around you.
