I wrap up my 12-week running journey, sharing how I transitioned from an engineer's mindset to embracing the challenges of endurance running. Starting with a detailed plan, I navigated through various obstacles like illness, injury, and adjusting to life changes while aiming to increase my weekly running distance. 

Over the course of these 12 weeks, I clocked 192.28 kilometers across 52 runs, learning to appreciate running beyond just the numbers. This experience taught me about adaptability, mental barriers in running, and the importance of consistent effort over perfection. 

Join me as I reflect on this transformative journey and share key takeaways that might inspire your own running adventures. Don't forget to drop your comments and questions, and stay tuned for what's coming next in my fitness journey!
