Norwegian alpine skier Aleksander Aamodt Kilde’s injury-struck troubles continue. Back in January, he crashed during the World Cup downhill race in Switzerland. A couple of days later, his girlfriend, Mikaela Shiffrin, faced a similar fate. However, the road to recovery was a tad more intricate for Kilde. And as he continued to power back gradually, another bump now deters him from doing so. Unfortunately, as per his latest update, there seems to be a sequel to this already difficult injury chapter for him.
Taking to his Instagram, Kilde added a post stating how his world has come crashing down once again in the past 4 days. Well, steadily increasing load and training more during his shoulder rehab has led him to “struggle with some increased pain in my repaired shoulder over the last couple weeks.”
Making things worse, he is now struck by an infection, which means that for the next 6 weeks, he has to be put on IV antibiotics every day through a PICC line. And the next steps can be revealed just after that. But, through it all, he has Shiffrin by his side. He feels grateful to be surrounded by “incredible, caring, brilliant people both at home and away.” Everything that he has been going through could not demotivate him as he also wrote, “That’s that, quite a bummer, but we keep fighting.”
