Hello Everybody,

I know I have been missing from the circuit most of this outdoor season which has been very disappointing for me.

The reason I have been out is do to an injury to my quad muscle which has healed and I have been training very hard again for the past few weeks.

I feel when you get on the track you should be 100% because nobody wants to hear excuses. I also want to congratulate Chandra Sturrup and Kelli White both ladies who suffered major injuries last year and have comeback on fire this season.

I hope my return to the circuit can also warm things up a little more, although I think the women's 100m will be hotter than ever at the World Championships.

I want to thank Dr. Muller Wohlfhart and his team of Dr. Thomas Mendlessohn and Physio Oliver Schmidtlein from FC Bayern Munich. I have never met people who cared more about what they do and I could have never believed they would have they would have treated me so well.

My next competition will be at the Night of Athletics Grand Prix II meeting in Heusden, Belgium where I ran the World’s fastest 100m for 2002.

I can’t think of a better place to restart my season. I plan to run a total of three meetings before the World Championships where I am still planning to run both the 100m and 200m.

Wish me luck as I need it.

Best wishes,
Zhanna
