Former triathlon world champion Helen Jenkins to miss Commonwealth Games through injury
FORMER triathlon world champion Helen Jenkins has been ruled out of the Commonwealth Games for Wales through injury.
She pulled out of last Saturday's race in Hamburg during the run because of a foot problem. The decision was described as precautionary but further tests have shown the injury is likely to end Jenkins' season.
She said: "I'm devastated. I will get more information from the specialist this week but with a grade two tear of my Plantar Fascia, it's almost certain that I won't be racing again this season."
