The past 48 hours have been very painful! On Tuesday night, the night before I was due to fly out to South Africa for Warm Weather training, I had a serious accident at the track.

Someone had placed my 6th hurdle in the wrong place. I had successfully completed the first two reps but repetition number three had a nasty surprise in store for me. As I raced down the track I tried to evade the 6th hurdle as I approached it as it was positioned far too close and it clipped me and sent me to the ground.

I was rushed to Accident and Emergency and operated on the next morning. Subsequently, I am not on my training camp anymore and I am housebound until my wrist heals.

The surgeons say that the damage to my wrist is very serious but I am optimistic that I can make a speedy recovery.

I will be on BBC Look East on Friday 29th January on a special sports programme.

I always look forward to opportunities to go in front of the box and talk to my followers! See you Friday guys.
