Seeking some advice about getting my mileage back up after basically a couple of weeks off due to illness. I was running 50 mile weeks and am wondering if it is safe just to go back to that level or do I need to build up to that?

Jog a hour a day.
You need to run all the miles you didn't run, so if you didn't run for 2 weeks, you need to do a 150 mile week, or maybe two 100 mile weeks.
Work on your core and back muscles.

Thanks pond scum, very useful. I'm doing some mini crunches while I sit at my desk.

That would take me back up to 50 miles give or take (depending on whether there are hills/trail or flat road).
