The route consisted of approx 40 miles of clear main road running, and 25 miles of back lanes and congested city traffic. The journey there took 1 hour 55 minutes, including approx ten minutes of completely stationary traffic, whilst the return run took just over two hours without the traffic jam - go figure! Coffee and mince pies added a further couple of hours

If you are not used to Sevens, on a long run I would recommend a 5-10 minute break every hour; I could have pushed myself a bit further than the two hour stint, but probably not by much before nature called!
