Ky Hurst
Born: Mar 11, 1981
Events: 10km Open Swim

Four times Australian Ironman champion, Ky Hurst is well-known for his significant success on the national circuit. He has been in the water since he was two and cites Grant Hackett amongst his friends.

Born in the year of the Metal Rooster he pays attention to detail and has a strong skill base. More importantly however, his day of birth, the Earth Rat is what gives him his strong will and steely determination. Needing the elements of Fire and earth, this personal luck period and the year 2008 is not the best and can present many distractions.

However, on the day of the race he is supported with the much needed element of Fire giving him the opportunity to summon enough strength to possibly spring a surprise.
