TOM WALSH - NEW ZEALAND'S MASSIVE SHOT PUT TALENT
Steve Landells for the IAAF
“The whole experience was a big thing for me, a big learning curve. It was interesting to see the way she was so focused and rather than going into my shell, I too became more focused. Val and I get on like a house on fire. I’m very lucky to have her.”

@Tom Walsh how did you feel about the NZ Championships?
I felt a wee bit buggered for the month of travel but was in good enough to throw the distances need to win! At the end of the day that's why I went to NZ Nationals, to win . I would have been happy to throw 21m again but all wanted to do is win!
@Tom Walsh So, where do you keep your WC medal?
I don't know where my WC medal is at the mo' ! Ha, I better have a look for it tho' !
Congratulations @Tom Walsh
People said Jacko was quite slow, do you think he will be able to improve until the Commonwealth Games?He wasn't as fast as what he has been in the past mate! But I'm sure he can turn it around. He has a good support team around him now that can point him in the right direction. Well, I hope he does as it would be good to have two kiwis in the medals for shot!

VALERIE ADAMS VALERIE ADAMS REFLECTS ON SOPOT AND HER FELLOW KIWI SHOT PUTTERS - IAAF ONLINE DIARIES
12 APR 2014
“It was a little strange to be almost a bit-part player at my national championship as most of the attention was thrust on the battle between @Tom Walsh and Jacko (Gill) for the men’s shot title. Yet that, for me, made it a championship to remember." -
@Tom Walsh do you have any competition already on your outdoor schedule?
I have just been accepted into the Eugene Diamond League so that will be my 1st comp. Then I have a 6 week build-up then have two comps before the Comm Games. Then a few more comps before coming home. -
