Ilze underwent an eye operation on Friday, which was scheduled last minute due to complications following an infection (from an insect that flew into her eye and made itself at home!). The operation was successful but her doc has advised her to keep a low profile on the racing and training side for a few weeks while she recovers and heals.
As a result, Ilze has decided to withdraw from the Team http://www.ar.co.za/ squad. I fully support her decision and doctor's advice; health and wellness should always be priorities placed above everything else. There are races all the time, year-round and, as a talented and enthusiastic athlete, I have little doubt that Ilze will encounter many other exciting opportunities in the future.
