How fit can you get in ~7 weeks?

[a311]

After a bit of a lay up through injury, I need to concentrate on getting my fitness back for a ski trip in Feb, no pootling around on piste will be full on all day with plenty of hiking etc.

Base level of fitness was decent, running a fair amount per week, live in the lakes so do a decent amount of fell walking and running but I've probably missed about 4+ weeks now through a foot injury and two weeks of boozing and eating on holiday.

Would ideally like to put some sort of plan together a make sure I stick to it.

Anyone done similar or have any suggestions?

I'd suggest lots of bodyweight squats including plenty of static holds. Otherwise suggest just basic calisthenics: burpees, star jumps, mountain climbers, pushups and planks. Just be sure not to injure yourself again!

Cheers. Was a strange injury really nothing 'went' whilst I was out running but all of a sudden just became painful to put weight on one foot.

Indeed! At the ripe old age of 32 I don't feel like I get injured any more often. However if/when I've picked up knocks playing rugby the recovery period is getting very noticeably longer!
