About two weeks before Nadine Hunt was meant to compete in the Cairns half Ironman event in July last year, she crashed her bike on the highway. It was the last long training ride before the race and she hit a bump before sliding on to the road and into traffic.
“I just remember looking up and seeing the number plate of the car,” Hunt says. “It was one of those moments where it just changed a lot of things for me. It made me realise how quickly or how close things can be and so much can be taken away.”
