Ep. 227 - Ironman Athleticism feat. Jack Smith

OG mate of the show and athlete Jack Smith returns for a catch up on his athletic journey in the past eighteen months since he was last on the show. We kick off with his experience competing in an Aquathon and Duathlon in Townsville at the start of the year, including having to take caution of sharks and crocs in his races. Following on we recap what is included in an Ironman event and talk through Jack's experience in racing in two of them, followed by one of the most unluckiest injuries and how he overcame it to still crack on and win the Australian Aquathon. Was great to catch up with a bloke having a red hot crack in the field of athletics, enjoy legends!Follow Jack on Instagram to check out his training and to reach out to him if you wish to sponsor the great man: https://www.instagram.com/smmitthyy96/Bought to you by Better Beer Zero Carb: www.betterbeer.com.au0:00 - Intro (Swimming in Townsville)4:58 - Competing in Ironman Events12:20 - Training, Mental and Physical Resilience21:34 - Overcoming Injuries the Australian Aquathon31:16 - Memorable Races39:12 - Work, Life and Training balance50:10 - Guest Questions Hosted on Acast.
