Running Again

I’m on the train heading back home after running 12.21km south towards Yokohama. I think it’s the furthest I’ve run since the Marathon in February, and the first time I’ve done over 10km since May. It’s extraordinary how out of shape I am. I used to have a really big barrier at 20km – that […]
