Picking up after a break

I've taken two weeks off from running due to a vacation and have just done a short run. Heavens, it felt harder than I expected! How long does it take yo get back into your stride? Any tips on doing so?

Give it a week, you'll be fine. I took 8 weeks out for an injury and was amazed how quickly I got my fitness back.0

Thank you, that's really reassuring. I'm surprised how much taking time off has knocked my confidence. There were lots of people running where I stayed and I kept watching them and thinking how hard it looks. I couldn't quite convince myself that before the break I was running 10 mile runs!TavistockToad wrote: »Give it a week, you'll be fine.
