In 2008 I had broken my femur at the hip and had a lot of problems with it hurting, so I decided to take the entire year of 2008 off. This was a sad thing, cause I have raced every year for the last 9 years. But in the end, I think it was definitly worth it. 2009 started off like I had expected, very ruff! But I'm not a quiter and I put my head down and trained harder and pushed myself. The year is going pretty good and I'm happy with most of my results. Next year in 2010, I'm going to race as many Pro-Am races as I can and my main goal is to ern my pro license, and I know I can do it. I believe in myself and my family and sponsors believe in me. So the thing to do now is, race this year get my speed up to par, and next year I'm jumping in and going to do it! So wish me luck and we will see what happens! Thanks for everybodys support!
