Checked how? Was a load test performed on it? Since the battery is 7 years
old, I'd say it won't be long before it needs to be replaced.

As others have mentioned, perhaps it's just flooded from not being used for
a while. If it happens again, hold the gas pedal down half way while
starting the car (it could take up to 15 seconds).

I doubt it is the main relay. I thought Honda resolved that issue about 10
years ago.
