    Does anyone know who is coaching Katherine Merry in Phoenix. She's left Linford Christie's stable and moved to the US but is being a little coy about who she is training with.

    Katharine again returned to Australia with “Team Linford” in 2002 and despite being in excellent physical shape she had to make the difficult decision to undergo surgery to a bone spur on her left foot, which was affecting her Achilles, meaning she had to undergo rehabilitation for the major part of the 2002 season.

    In the Spring of 2003 Katharine went to Arizona with “Team Linford” for warm-weather training in preparation for the up-coming Outdoor season. During the early part of the season Katharine was plagued by illness but she made her season debut at the Norwich Union Super League in Gateshead in July where she ran 52.35secs in the 400m to place 5 th . Unfortunately, she suffered from numerous bouts of tonsillitis that required surgery and brought the 2003 season to a premature end.

    Katharine traveled to Phoenix with ‘Team Linford' in April of 2004 for warm weather training. She was unable to compete on the track in 2004 due to an ongoing foot injury and has spent much time seeking further treatment and a clear diagnosis. She is currently staying in America for treatment, whilst rehabilitating and training, and will use the winter period to prepare for a comeback to true form in 2005.

    Having already been at the top of International Athletics for over 14 years Katharine has fulfilled the potential Linford first spotted in her when they met when she was aged 11.

      That's old news Epelle, I'm afraid.
