Levi Maxwell // professional triathlon, balance outside of sport and mental health

Welcome to the last episode of season 1. This week's guest is professional Australian Triathlete Levi Maxwell. Throughout the few years I’ve been watching Triathlons – I’ve always admired Levi, so it's an absolute honour to be joined by him for a chat.

In this episode we discuss Levi’s introduction to the sport as an adult and how he transitioned from a beginner who had to teach himself how to swim to taking out the Age group Ironman world championships two years running. And then making his mark in the professional arena. Levi also shares some of the injuries and mental challenges that he’s faced as part of his journey in the sport.

This episode is open and raw, and does discuss panic attacks, so if this something triggering to you please skip ahead. Levi’s insightful and humble attitude is the perfect way to wrap up the first season.
