It was not easy...but i promised myself weekends would be my longer runs. I managed 7k, it felt hard and my legs were feeling it at the end (despite my cloud power) but wow did i feel good for completing it! My km times were pretty balanced throughout to so i have not lost all the things i learnt in my no run gap :-)

Bring on the next long run!

Well done Alison! See, yet another convert to the longer runs :) really impressed that your splits were even too. You’ll smash this, you know that, right?
