Welcome to my training report for week commencing 24th November 2014. Part of a series of weekly reports, briefly summarising my training during that week and plans for the following week. You will find the vast majority of my workouts published through my Strava, Runkeeper and Movescount accounts. Where applicable I have provided direct links to specific workouts on Strava below, should you wish to see more detail on them. OK so lets get into it…
Last week (commencing 24th November 2014)
As mentioned in last weeks report, I had a small surgical procedure a couple of weeks ago requiring two weeks complete rest from all training. This week, from Wednesday, marked the end of that period so the aim was to see how body felt and build run mileage slowly with a couple of easy core sessions thrown in for good measure.
Monday and Tuesday
Continue with rest and recovery!

Thursday
Quick core and flexibility session in hotel room, 2 times through the 7 minute workout
