周子雁，香港長跑界的傳奇人物；她原本是中學老師，卻在將近三十歲時辭去了教職，一腳跨出舒適圈，成為全職馬拉松選手，目標是代表香港參加奧運。在柏林的一場賽事中，她跑出2小時49分57秒的成績，距­離奧運參賽門檻只差7分鐘。於是她艱苦地參加各項比賽，只為了超越那7分鐘！除了每次參賽的自我突破，她還得面對各種不同的挑戰：突發病痛、缺乏專業跑道、資助難尋等。導演除了記錄參賽過程，也記錄了親友團如何精心計畫路線、幫她加油。

In 2011, Alison CHOW participated in the 38th BMW Berlin Marathon. She finished the marathon in 2 hours 49 minutes and 57 seconds, 7 minutes slower than the Olympics entry requirement, thus the name of this documentary, Breaking 7. Alison gave up on her stable teaching job and left her comfort zone at the age of almost 30 just to follow her dream. She went through countless challenges with her coach, good friends and family, and was further inspired in life.
