Since my last post I have been spending alot of time with the physios Alison and Rebecca after having a problem in my left knee (not the one I had surgery on). The problem was the patella was being pulled to the outside of my knee causing alot of pain on the underside of my patella each time I contracted my quads, last week I skied without any pain and am fully back on track wit fitness and training.
Molltal glacier was ideal for training they had made plenty of artificial snow which stays much harder throughout the day, providing ideal conditions for us.
I will be heading back to Molltal next week for some more training. I have set myself a target to start racing again at the beginning of December. I believe it will be more beneficial for me to get alot of training in rather than try to race without having fully prepared.
The world cup season officially kicks off this weekend with the GS in Solden, Chemmy is the only Brit involved so hopefully she will be on form. In the mens race it will be exciting to see the return of Svindal I reckon he will be up for it.
Bye for now I'll keep you updated on how I progress through the next month
