  • Summary

  • On the podcast this week, we have Kyle Smith! Kyle is a professional triathlete from New Zealand. Raised in Blackburn, UK on a diet of motocross and modern pentathlon, he moved to Taupo in his youth, found triathlon and set about becoming one of the best in the world. He is often first off the bike with blistering swim and bike splits, and this year he's been backing that up with solid run performances. As you’ll hear, he prefers the middle distance events such as T100 and 70.3, but he's found success at every level from World Triathlon short course racing, to off-road XTERRA. After 2 frustrating years dogged by illness, Kyle has been showing his true potential in 2024. After winning the PTO Championship race in Samorin, he was beaten by the width of a running vest at the T100 event in San Francisco. He’s currently 4th in the T100 rankings and is focussing on the World 70.3 championships in his home town of Taupo, NZ later this year. Conversation topics include:
    • Why no one remembers the guy with the fastest bike split
    • Building resilience through injury and illness
    • Winning by learning to race smart
    • Girona vs St Moritz - which is the best training location?
    • The balance between technology and human instinct in training and racing
    • Disrupted training plans and adapting to imperfect situations
    • 70.3 Taupo - an opportunity to race the world championships in your home town
