numerous runners in the last leg of the<br />
2016 triathlon to claim gold, finishing with<br />
a remarkable time of 54:02. Hindman was<br />
only the third American to win the event<br />
and the first to win since 2011.<br />
A nine-time high school state champion,<br />
Hindman joined the Mizzou cross country<br />
and track and field teams this fall.<br />
Men’s triathlon is not an NCAA-sponsored<br />
sport, so Hindman will be competing<br />
in cross country events for Mizzou while<br />
still racing triathlons at the international<br />
level. He cites the biggest adjustment for<br />
him while transitioning to college has been<br />
finding ways to maximize his time to make<br />

“I come to practice and run with my team<br />
and then just try and get in my swim and<br />

Golfweek Conference Challenge at<br />
