Darrell Hill was the third member of TeamUSA for Shot Put in Rio 2016, alongside the eventual Gold and Silver Medallists.   In this interview Darrell talk about what it is like to train everyday alongside the World Champion Joe Kovacs, or the Olympic Champion, Ryan Crouser and how that environment has pushed him already this year to a new PR of 21.91m, and what he feels he brings to the Shot Put event.  Also Darrell comes in for some unwanted attention, not once but twice, from one of the local residents at the US Olympic Training Center, a Mexican Killer Bee!

In this interview, following this last major competition before Rio2016, we catch up with the World Indoor Shot Put Champion about his final preparations, and how he has worked together with his coach, former Australian Shot putter: Dale Stevenson, to develop his technique and training and make the 24 year old New Zealander a serious medal contender in Rio. Together with Valerie Adams and Jacko Gill, Walsh has contributed to making the “Land of the Long White Cloud” traditionally known as a Rugby stronghold, into a Shot Put powerhouse with three of the world’s best throwers represented in the New Zealand Olympic Team of just 14 Track and Field athletes. In this interview, Tom talks about how he has been helped and motivated by his fellow Kiwi’s over the years.
