Well done, you did it.
My theory is that after a break we often get pacing wrong and push too hard. This is based on the fact that many of my PBs have come after a break of a week or more. Those runs were hard, but fast.
You won't have lost any condition in two weeks, so I am sure you will soon be back at a comfortable level.
Just keep it nice and steady.
Not what you're looking for?
