Since early December last year, Robyn has been recovering from a neck injury sustained whilst dirt go-kart racing (see picture).She damaged three discs and various muscles and ligaments in her neck, and is only just starting to feel some pain relief and to regain some side movement after trying various treatments.
It is expected she will be looking at another 2 months before recovering full movement of her neck, with a possible further 3 months before she is strong enough to race again. We are confident if all goes well that she will ready to race for the start of next season. However, there is a chance that her neck may not be able to withstand any further injuries, in which case she may have to retire from racing. We are crossing our fingers that this will not be the case.
Robyn’s comments: It’s been a frustrating 4 ½ months, but I have faith that things happen for a reason. If I do get to race again, I’m confident I’ll be back stronger than ever.
