Join us for an inspiring conversation with John Domandl, whose triathlon career spans over 40 years and includes more than 150 events, along with four World Championships. In 1988, John proudly represented Australia at the Seoul Paralympics.
We caught up with him right after his second time competing at Ultraman Australia 2025, where he experienced quite the adventure in Noosa! Hear all about the ups and downs of those three days for John and his dedicated team.
John, who lives with retinitis pigmentosa, is also an ambassador for Cure Blindness Australia. You can learn more about their important work on their website.
