Undergraduate / MIT: 'Every evening I put on my running clothes and go to nearby forest to run few kilometers' [7]
The edited version certainly sounds less erudite-almost humble now- and much clearer than the previous one while conveying the same message.
As a non-native English speaker, I'm actually cautious about commenting on grammar but about the story of your essay, I feel that you may be able to polish/clarify a bit more in some parts
"When I cannot solve some problem / the solution often comes to me on a run/ because I'm able to forget about my work and just enjoy my training" --> When broken into three parts as shown here, the logic of the sentence seems a bit confusing (at least to me). You said you forget about your work and just enjoy running and that provides you the solution during the run? How can you learn the solution while forgetting about it? It may make more sense if you say it comes after a run, after your refreshing break or something like that.
I hope it helps to make clearer and hopefully more coherent essay! :)
I just joined this forum so not yet posted my essay but if you liked my comment, please help me later when you see my thread! And I'll appreciate that sooo much :D
