this arrived in my email this morning,
Hi everyone,
Just thought I'd put together a quick email to let you know how everything is going. As you know following my injury to my spine in November last year i have not been able to race in the World Championship or any motocross events this year. I have really missed the racing and competition but am really glad to be on my feet and up and about. I have been on the exercycle at the gym whenever I can as I cannot live without my fix of endorphins from exercise and want to stay in the best possible shape I can whilst restricted with my back.
In the time off I have been keeping myself busy by studying for a Bachelor of sport and exercise science and thoroughly enjoying it. I have learnt so much about the human body, training, coaching and other factors associated with sports science. Many things I would have loved to have known when I was competing! My grades have been really good with all A+ averages for last semester.
I broke two of the screws in back over the past month when I was cleaning my room so I have had my surgery approved and am waiting for a date to confirm when this will all happen. I hope soon because having two rods poking out of your back is not the most pleasent experience.
Last weekend I had the chance to go and watch adn support the Junior Worlds in Taupo and it was a great event with close racing. There are some good young riders coming through and I think the event was great for motocross in NZ.
Hope you are well and thanks for your continued support,
Katherine Prumm
