James Ellington (pictured) continued his fight back to fitness as the Trackspeed1 pre-season training camp in Florida headed toward its close this week.As the photograph suggests, James is at long last apparently shaking off injuries that have blighted his recent career throughout 2007 and 2008. The session at Disney's Wide World of Sports saw James back in blocks for the first time in months, with subsequent flat out runs looking equally as convincing.
It's been a productive trip for the 23-year-old European under-23 4x100m gold medalist in 2007, with the results of time trials (published earlier on this site) underlining his progression back to full fitness. James is likely to be opening his competitive account at Bedford on May 31st, defending the title he won over 100m at the Bedford International Games. Depending on further progress, he may also choose to contend the 200m at that meeting also.
Meanwhile, the latest update from across the Atlantic was that there could be a premature end to track work this week, as violent storms swept across Central Florida, with a forecast of more to come this week!
