Fast group Friday! 😅
Finally made it to fast group!!
Few messages off people asking why I’m not back racing when I said I would be so thought I’d let you all know on here.
After Spain I was still really struggling with on going injuries with neck, shoulders, knees and ankle.
I chose not to race due to these injuries, for I think what must be the first time that I can remember in my career. More than used to riding with broken bones and even backs for that matter, as most racers are.
The fact is I didn’t feel safe and fully in control in Spain, this would not be safe to push for me or others on track.
Today I had surgery on my neck that I chose to stay awake for, which was more than unpleasant 😅.
I’m awaiting MRI’s on both shoulders to see what can be done. Having already had 2 steroid injections that have failed.
I made a promise to myself I wouldn’t race again until I was fitter than I’ve ever been, so I must stick to it.
I’m doing absolutely all I can to get back out there and to be honest, I’m really struggling with it all keep going wrong.
Oh, to be a racer ey!
Thanks for all your support and have a great weekend everyone- enjoy the sun! 🌞 🍻
