Weekly Strava recap to Notion training journal

Build me an agent workflow that writes a weekly training recap to my Notion training journal every Sunday evening.

Trigger: cron, every Sunday at 7pm local time. (Strava is not in pollProviders, so cron is the right choice.)

At setup, ask me for: the Notion database ID of my training journal, the IANA timezone for the schedule, and optional sport filters (for example running, cycling, swimming) to scope which activities are included.

When it runs, the agent should:

1) Call Strava List Athlete Activities for the last 7 days (use the after/before timestamps for the most recent Mon to Sun window in my timezone), paginating until all activities are retrieved. Apply the configured sport filters if any.

2) Call Strava Get Athlete Stats to get recent totals and year to date totals for context.

3) Compute the narrative recap: total volume by sport (distance, moving time, elevation), longest single session, hardest effort (use suffer score / relative effort if present, else heart rate or pace), week over week trend versus the prior 7 days, and a rough recovery balance read (e.g. high volume back to back days, or balanced distribution). Then write 2 or 3 themes or recommendations for the upcoming week.

4) Call Notion Create a Page as a child of the configured database. Title the page with the week range, for example "Training week: May 19 to May 25". Set any required database properties (date range, total distance, total time) if the database has them.

5) Call Notion Append Block Children on the new page to write the structured recap as Markdown blocks: a short opening summary, a stats table (sport, sessions, distance, moving time, elevation), headings for Longest session, Hardest effort, Week over week, Recovery balance, and Themes and recommendations for next week. Include the year to date totals at the bottom as a small footer.

If there were no activities in the window, still create the page and write a short rest week note plus the year to date totals so the journal stays continuous.

Tone: first person, coach-like, concise. No emojis. Use plain Markdown headings and a table, nothing fancy.

What does this prompt do?

Pulls the last 7 days of activities from Strava and your recent and year to date totals every Sunday evening.
Writes a narrative weekly recap covering volume by sport, longest session, hardest effort, week over week trend, and recovery balance.
Creates a new page in your Notion training journal database titled with the week range, with clean headings and a stats table.
Closes with 2 or 3 themes and recommendations for the upcoming week so you start Monday with intent.

What do I need to use this?

A Strava account connected to General Input with read access to your activities.
A Notion workspace with a training journal database shared with the General Input connection.
The Notion database ID you want recaps written to, plus any sport filters you want applied at setup.

How can I customize it?

Change the schedule from Sunday at 7pm to any cadence and local time that fits your training week.
Filter to specific sports (running, cycling, swimming) or include everything in one combined recap.
Adjust the recap structure, the stats table columns, or the tone of the themes and recommendations section.

FAQs

Does this work if I track multiple sports on Strava?

Yes. The recap groups volume by sport so a multi sport week shows running, cycling, swimming, and anything else you logged side by side. You can also restrict to specific sports at setup.

Where do recaps go in Notion?

Each week creates one new page inside the Notion database you point to at setup, titled with the week range. Older recaps stay in the database so you can scroll back through your training history.

Can I change the day or time the recap runs?

Yes. Sunday at 7pm local time is the default because that is when most people plan the upcoming training week, but you can shift it to Friday evening, Monday morning, or any other cadence.

Will it include year to date totals?

Yes. The recap pulls your recent and year to date totals from Strava so each week's page shows how the past 7 days fit into your bigger picture.

What if I had a rest week with no activities?

The recap still runs and writes a short page noting the rest week, plus any year to date context, so your journal stays continuous even in down weeks.
