Kristen Faulkner has confirmed her readiness to start the racing season with team EF-Oatly-Cannondale after recovering from a concussion. The concussion occurred last December, delaying her season for about three months. Faulkner appreciated her team's support, which allowed her to recover without pressure to return prematurely to competition. She expressed gratitude for being able to heal on her own timeline. Initially set to start her season in March, she is now slated to compete in the revived women's Milan-San Remo on Saturday.
I'm finally feeling better, which is so nice. The recovery process was very up and down. I thought I was good and then I went to team camp and I had to leave team camp early.
From the team's standpoint, it was better just to make sure I was fully recovered and not put a timeline on it, not put pressure on me to perform at any upcoming race.
