A successful 2016 season has Kiwi shot putter Tom Walsh dreaming of endless possibilities.

Walsh has been back training ahead of the 2017 season after a year which saw him claim Olympic bronze and a Diamond League title.

Walsh says though he's happy with his efforts this year he's got a lot more to give.

He says he took time to reflect on his year which made him happy but it's made him hungrier to chase other milestones like an elusive world record.
