2026 Delirious Series - Kylie Bell: Night Shifts, Run Commutes & Not Overthinking Delirious WEST 2026

In this Delirious WEST 2026 – Check-In 3 episode, I catch up with Kylie Bell to see how training is tracking as the race starts to feel very real.

Kylie shares how she’s juggling busy shift work, limited time, and long-term ultra prep – including running to work, doing a full shift, then running home again (yes, really). We chat about training on tired legs, getting night running dialled in, and why consistency beats perfection right now.

We also talk through:

• Strength work coming back into focus

• Testing packs, poles, shoes, and backup gear (including zip ties and hair ties!)

• Nutrition learnings from Kosciuszko and keeping things simple

• Travelling to Japan mid-build and why hiking + moving still counts

• Heat worries, weather roulette, and hoping April behaves itself

• Crew planning, laminated cheat sheets, and why support crews deserve medals

• The fine line between experience and complacency

Kylie brings her trademark calm confidence – not stressed, not panicking, just quietly getting the work done. A great listen if you’re balancing life, work, and big endurance goals… or if you’ve ever thought, “Am I doing enough?”
