I've just completed my first race back, running for England out in Bern Switzerland. What was thought to be a flat fast 10mile, turned out to be a little over 10 miles hilly with cobbles and through a forest. It was also very hot!
Even with all that I was really glad to be back racing, after only starting full training last week. I'd taken a week off and had a short break abroad to rest and let the calf injury that had put me out of London heal.
It was a tough hard race but gives me a mark to show where i am at the moment and what i now have to work on ready for Barcelona.
