  3. Not the news I wanted to share with you 1 week out from the Chicago Marathon 🥲 Last Thursday I started experiencing knee pain that escalated quickly and meant I had to stop my cool down early as I began compensating Later that day I couldn’t walk normally and my knee became swollen We tried our best to offload, I rested for a 3 days and things were looking really promising when I was able to run pain free on Monday for 15 minutes Sadly, it was short-lived and the pain returned in the next two runs The initial diagnosis was patellofemoral joint pain but when it stopped responding as expected to treatment, we decided to get an MRI this Wednesday On Thursday I received the results and it wasn’t good news I’ve got a fracture in the bone at the inside of my right knee (medial femoral condyle). It’s “subchondral,” so just under the cartilage. As a result my kneecap is sitting slightly higher than normal which has irritated the fat pad that cushions the kneecap, and there’s a patch of grade 2 cartilage damage on the inner side of the kneecap. My team thinks the fracture was caused by the fall I had on the trail 8 weeks ago as this isn’t the type of stress fracture you get from overtraining, it’s a trauma injury. When I fell on it I bruised the bone. Although it was pain free for 6.5 weeks of high volume marathon training, the weakness from the fall eventually became too much, which is why this appeared to come out of the blue. For now, I’m on crutches and I won’t know how long for until I speak to the Sports Doc next week. The worry is that this location is a major load-bearing surface of the joint which means this is a high risk fracture location. Even low-level activities like walking put force directly through the fracture site, so healing can be a challenge if its not properly offloaded. I don’t know what the next few months will look like - this is my first major injury so it’s going to be a process. It’s basically the worst news both professionally, and mentally right now. I mostly feel numb and get waves of sadness both for the race/this block, but also the unknown for the near future. I know I’ll be back, I just don’t know when right now ❤️‍🩹

  1. You’ve only gone and WON THE SPINE race!!! 87hours and 41mins and 268miles later. You’re literally my hero in every sense. I know this will be the icing on the cake for you Goss. The Spine Part 2 was for you, for closure, to have the ending your way after your world came crashing down this time last year 💔🫶🏻. It’s been an absolute privilege literally living on my phone, and taking over Goss’s social media. I can’t put into words how much this absolute gem of a person means to us. When I did my first Pro race, Goss sent me an email (she didn’t really know me) and said to go out and enjoy it. It meant the world. Fastforward 10 years and she’s one of our very best friends and was also The Vicar at our wedding. Fun fact. What can’t this superwoman do! There is no denying 2024 was tough for Goss. Literally this time last year was one of the hardest things to see your close friend go through. We all felt heartbroken. If you haven’t read her ‘why’ behind The Spine Race Part 2, then I will put a link in my story to read. I will let Goss in time write her post race post. Thank you Goss for being a hero to so many people. For me personally, thank you for being a best friend, you’ve helped guide me in my life in many ways, in my Pro career, and also to try and be a better person each day, and follow my heart in life. Shedding a few tears right now 🥹🥹🥹 what a legend. Thank you to everyone who’s supported Goss and been as obsessed with the tracker as us 🤣. Big ❤️ you have been the best! Big congrats to all the athletes racing and a big thank you to all the volunteers, you’re the heart and soul of it all ❤️. Okay over and out from me 🫶🏻. The next post will be from the superhuman herself! 📸: @spinerace
