Another challenge for Chemmy Alcott

Admin posted Aug-2013

... as if she needed any more ... :roll:

BBC wrote:British alpine skier Chemmy Alcott has suffered a setback in her preparations for next year's Sochi Winter Olympics after re-breaking her leg in training.
Alcott, 31, shattered her right leg in 2010 and pulled out of this year's World Championships after being told to rest following a high-speed crash.
She said she will miss the first races of the season but be fit for Sochi.


Chemmy's also posted the following herself :-

Chemmy wrote:Slight set back in my Sochi prep as the last day of a fabulous camp where I was skiing technically stronger than ever, I had a little whoopsie. Rebroken my leg. Clean, easy break already weight bearing. Medical opinion is I will miss first races but will be good to go full speed ahead after. Unfortunate set back but I am used to the adversity, just another chapter before the Hollywood finish in Sochi!!


Get Well Soon! :thumbup:

Yep this one sucks especially if things were starting to come together. Still better a break than a ligament, if that is a +ve. Sounds like oxygen tent and a good book is required.
