Six Weeks Coming To An End

Last time I wrote I was in Dallas at MJP on a training camp with GB Bobsleigh and it was one of the best camps I have ever attended in 10days I learnt so much about myself and a lot of new methods of training and technical work I came home with a new outlook and passion to move forward.

It has been a massive challenge for me training in a plaster cast past my elbow but I never let it stop me do anything! I have been able to continue to run, weightlift a lot of it being single arm only but a lot on my legs, plyometrics, and a lot of core by balancing on my elbows! I have been working hard and have enjoyed every minute of it. The only thing I have found hard has been travelling to Bath and watching the girls on the push track as at the minute this is an impossible task for me. Anyone who is a sports person knows that this is like torture having to stand back and watch when your itching to get out there and do it , but my time will come soon. I did however help by pushing the Bobsleigh back up the hill using just my left hand so I can class that as a training session and a hard one at that I did numerous hills they where coming thick and fast!! When the girls had finished on the dry slope I got Mia a helmet and took her down with me in the Bob and she loved it, she is as mad as her mother I must add haha.

So now I am getting excited as I am back to the hospital on Thursday to hopefully have my cast removed as long as my bone has fused. I can't wait to get my arm back it's been too long.If they tell me I need to go back in a cast for longer they will have to catch me cause I shall be running from the Plaster Suite FAST! Haha. I am looking forward to being able to train to my maximum but I know I will need a lot of physio and rehab to get my full movement back but I know I can do it

Till next time.....
