TeamCPNZ Connect – Ep 40 – PAUL – CPNZ Media Live
Welcome to the TEAMCPNZ Quick Connect Podcast, where we keep you in the loop, inspired, and part of something bigger.
We’re catching up with long-time Team CPNZ legend, Paul Botha. Paul’s been part of our community for over 8 years and last joined us on the podcast back in Episode 5 after completing the iconic Comrades Ultra Marathon in South Africa — the longest-running ultramarathon on the planet.
Fast forward to today, and it’s all about triathlon. Over the past three years, Paul has swapped his marathon-only legs for cycling power and even added a splash of swimming into the mix. After completing his first full-distance Ironman in Taupō 2023 — where I had the pleasure of lining up alongside him — Paul has just ticked off his 4th Ironman at Ironman Cairns a few weeks ago. Epic stuff!
