I've battled right heel pain, plantar fasciitis, Achilles tendinosis and tibialis anterior tendinitis for many years. After doing physiotherapy and managing it with rest, footwear changes and anti-inflammatory treatment for years, I've reached the point where surgery is the best option. Bone spurs removed and Achilles repaired. Ready to start from the bottom to return to sprinting fitness.

Rebuilding my sprinting capabilities and capacity has been a long process. Last year at this time I underwent treatment for partial left leg paralysis. I don't miss the painful spinal injections and gabapentin pills. Sprinting times progression since. May 2025 - 200m 24.93, 400m 55.51; November 2025 - 100m 12.21, 11.89. The capability for my left quadriceps muscle to handle load then quickly react is still less than optimal. Looking forward to the training gains ahead. It was fun mixing it up with a group of talented sprinters to end my outdoor season at NCCMA2025 . Congrats to all the athletes that placed, finished and competed in the challenging conditions.

Workouts are so much better with 🇺🇸 as a 100m, 200m, 400m sprinter, my sprinting fitness barometer is 250m. 30 seconds to 31 seconds is a good steady state before indoor season training preparation.

Still smiling after 2x250m, 1x80m. Clearly, I didn't run hard enough.
