Thanks for tuning into the podcast! Campbell represents team Australia and is one of the Oceania region’s top competitors for moving onto the Olympics in the boulder and lead combined category. He also recently got elected to the IFSC athlete’s commission, so in this episode we’ll talk about causes he’d like to champion through that, what it’s like competing as an Australian, and he also opens up about his past struggles with eating disorders, as well as why he was partially missing in Olympic qualifiers in 2020.Guest links:InstagramReference links:The scariest comp fall EVERLearn more about the podcast at www.thatsnotrealclimbingpodcast.comFollow on Instagram at https://www.instagram.com/thatsnotrealclimbingpodcastJoin the community in Discord! https://discord.gg/QTa668g8zpIf you're able to help support the podcast, you can "buy me a chalk refill" :) current proceeds are going toward a webcam! www.buymeacoffee.com/compclimbingTimestamps of discussion topics0:00 - Introduction3:13 - Past commentating experience7:46 - When Campbell first started climbing and competing10:17 - Transitioning from youth to adult15:14 - Growth as a climber19:17 - Recent Australian Boulder Nationals results!25:19 - The difficulties of being an Australian climber31:40 - Thoughts on how to grow the Australian team35:44 - What is the IFSC athlete’s commission39:00 - Causes to fight for in athlete’s commission44:00 - The issue of unfair routesetting48:34 - Personal experience with RED-S59:36 - RED-S differences between male and female climbers1:04:18 - Missing out on the 2021 Olympics1:11:35 - Excitement about not having to speed climb1:15:48 - Training plans after Oceania qualifiers1:19:22 - Discord Q: Are climbers are targeted by the government in regards to aboriginal heritage?1:23:03 - Discord Q: Thoughts on Eubank grading?1:24:42 - Discord Q: Being queer in the climbing community: how does it feel competing in countries where it's illegal?1:29:19 - Where to find Campbell + Outro
