Summary



James Newbury was the 5th Fittest Man in the World last year and Australia's fittest, but while mountain biking during the Open this year he crashed. The wipeout left him with a punctured lung and three broken vertebrae. Most people would take a break after that, but James was doing an IronMan 12 weeks later and training for a try-out to be part of the Australian Bobsled Team. We talk about all that and how he is a 100% vegan these days.
