Kiwi triathlon star Hayden Wilde has provided updates in his recovery after a bike crash with a truck in Japan left him hospitalized and in need of surgery in early May. When the accident first occurred, it was unclear how long it would be before Wilde could return to training, and although it has been a slow process, he is officially back swimming, cycling and running. His return to racing is likely still a while down the road, but his progress points to a successful comeback after such a shocking and unfortunate accident.
