Long-distance triathlete Kat Matthews is preparing to take a big step into the unknown after a horrifying collision.
The 31-year-old will make her racing comeback next month as she takes on the IRONMAN Texas on April 22. But in that very same US state last year, things went catastrophically wrong for the Brit as she was hit by a car while out on a training ride.
She fractured her skull, two vertebrae in her neck, her sternum, a rib and she recently also discovered she’d fractured her hip socket. By her own admission she could have died in that crash.
