The point I guess is that Winderlich seems to have made a full recovery to be able to sprint over that distance, more than competitively with other athletes, and come out ok on the other side. Seems to be he should be raring to go for the preseason.
Like you, Filthy, I felt that he had started to hit his straps right on the cusp of doing his leg which put him out for the year. Typical of our season, but good signs ahead.

We should start them all at scratch and give em packpacks full of lead weights. If you cant beat em break em down I say.
On the topic though, yes It is encouraging to see Winder flying again and I really hope he comes up the way some other youngsters have for other teams last season (ie. deludio, murphy, polo etc.).
