So, I’m doing this “Empty Out” writing thing to spill what’s been on my mind about my post-marathon workouts. Honestly, it’s been a bit of a weird month. After the marathon, I went from having a solid running plan to… well, nothing. And looking back, big mistake.

I should’ve eased into things, mixed in some slower, less intense workouts. Live and learn, right? But here we are, one month down the line, and I’m ready to switch things up. My priorities have shifted from conquering miles to conquering career goals.

To kickstart this new phase, I’ve set myself a challenge: 12 days of 12km. I’ve done it before, and it puts me in the best headspace. Starting on Wednesday, December 6, and wrapping up on December 17, it’s not just about running; it’s about getting my mind and body back in sync.

This challenge means a lot to me. First off, I’m sharing the whole journey on my TikTok – holding myself accountable for real. Second, setting a goal has always worked for me. It’s a promise to myself that I always keep. Lastly, I’ve run this distance before, so I know it’s not just wishful thinking; it’s doable.

So, here’s to the 12 days of 12km challenge. You can catch every step of the way on TikTok, and I’ll spill all the details on December 17. The marathon might be in the rearview mirror, but the journey continues, and I’m excited to see where it takes me.
