OK, so as soon as this blog started, the journey to NY is over. I have had bad groin pain over the past few days which has been potentially diagnosed as osteitis pubis, which is an inflammation of the pelvic bone. If this is the case, I will have to rest it for up to 9 months. I am awaiting X-Ray results but if they come back clear, I will have to have an MRI scan on the pelvis too.
I have therefore withdrawn from the ING New York City Marathon and also the Bupa Great North Run too. This is obviously a frustrating time for me but I have to accept that injury is part and parcel of road running and I hope to come back quicker and stronger in 2012.
