Well, this was not planned for the end of my mountain Biking season. Whilst practicing the course the night before the championship race in Cannock I slipped in the rain and mud at very low speed which resulted in severe soft tissue damage to my ankle and included detaching a small piece of bone from my fibula. Devastated can't describe how I feel at the moment and this has put an end not only to my mountain bike season but to the opportunity to race in the UEC Mountain Bike Championships in Pila, Italy in late August. I'm so sad but determined to be back as soon as I can and I am working hard with my coach and sports therapist to get my ankle strong and be back on the bike very soon.
