The crash was a major setback for Worrack, who had enjoyed a strong start to the year with overall victory at the Ladies Tour of Qatar and a podium placing at the Ronde van Drenthe. After suffering such severe injuries, the path back to full health has been a challenging one for Worrack. She has had to undergo continued testing on her remaining kidney to check how she is coping with the workload required to make her comeback. Just a few weeks away from her potential return, Worrack is not yet back to where she was prior to the crash. "Even now I'm not yet at full training. The first week I did 30 minutes or maximum one hour either on the trainer or on the road. I couldn't stand up out of the saddle or pull on the bars without some discomfort in my scar and side,” said Worrack. “I would fatigue quickly but that was mostly because my haemoglobin levels were still so low. It wasn't like returning to training after you've had a few days off because of the flu. It was different. I couldn't ride in my normal power zone, I was simply "riding" but I was satisfied with that. Now I'm training in my normal zones for up to three hours. I've not done any intensity or interval work yet, though."

She returned to her home in Erfurt, Germany, after leaving the hospital in Varese last Friday. “I’ve torn my left kidney in three places during the crash, so it had to be completely removed,” Worrack explained. With the consequences of her crash, Worrack admits she is uncertain whether she’ll be able to return to racing ever again. “This is not your typical cyclist injury like a broken collarbone, after which you can calculate roughly when you’ll be back on the bike. I have no idea yet how it all goes.”
