Wounded Warrior; here’s a little recap in Cody’s very own words via social media about his weekend (codyjanssen.25 on Instagram).

“I went to Tennessee having not rode since leaving Texas after my big get-off. I knew it wouldn't be an easy weekend, but I fully expected to be able to compete at a relatively high level. In reality however, my body didn't respond as well as I had hoped. Everyone could see my [still] black eye, what you couldn't see is the fracture in my back and - the biggest hurdle - the broken ankle I'm trying to ride through. I managed a 13th overall Pro finish, and a similar result in result in Pro-Am. I battled up to 10th in Moto1, got tangled up in Moto 2 making a pass inside the top 10. I was a shell of myself, riding like that isn't fun, but the last thing I'm going to do is quit when so many sacrifice to make this possible. Back at the doctor this week to see what we can do. Thank you to all who continue to believe, I'll be back and more like the real #25.”  -Cody Janssen

Update – Cody spent much of the week between visits with specialists, doctors, and physical therapists. The reigning World Champion feels like he is pulling out all the stops to make a step forward and is going to try to even do some riding this weekend before the next round at Ironman Raceway. All indications are the #25 rider won’t be 100% yet, but should be much closer to that number by race day.

Cody’s chase for his 3^rd National Championship wouldn’t be possible without the great care and support of the people that continue to back him. He must thank his parents/family and the rest of the Janssen Motorsports crew; Thank you to the Londerville family and Londerville Steel for stepping up for Cody when he needed it most.
