ÜBER DIESE EPISODE
In this episode of Uninterrupted season 8, Sophie Howe sits down with Cairns-based triathlete, coach and community researcher Nadine Hunt, the first First Nations Australian woman to compete at the IRONMAN World Championship. Nadine shares how she fell into triathlon, what it meant to represent her community on a global stage, and why endurance sport is about so much more than finish times.

- Why representation in sport still matters
- The reality of balancing IRONMAN training with motherhood
- How endurance sport can build confidence, identity and community
