515 : The Ultra Podcast
The best part of attending a 515km / Ultraman distance event is the life-long friendships you leave with. These events attract remarkable athletes from all walks of life and all corners of the globe. 515 : The Ultra Podcast invites you into the lives of these people who make up the Ultra family through conversations hosted by Larry Ryan, race director of Ultra TriFest Canada and the new Ultra 515 World Wide Championships held in Whistler, BC.
Join us if you are an Ironman with an aspiration toward the 515km distance; if you are a seasoned veteran of Ultratriathlon; or you just want to fill your training hours listening to inspiring stories, about epic events, told by interesting people. There will be plenty of take-aways for your own training and/or your bucket list. For show notes and past guests, please visit the Podcast Website: https://515theultrapodcast.buzzsprout.com

S2E11 -- Ultraman Arizona Preview
Steve King and the race director of Ultraman Arizona, Jen McVeay, join me to preview the long awaited inaugural running of the race taking place March 11-13. We discuss the themes that cross through a number of the athletes as we introduce you to some of the racers and their crews.
Tallahassee resident and Big Sexy Racing athlete Jamie Harris (2018 and 2019 Ultraman Florida Champion) is my Athlete in Profile. We have a great discussion about her previous races and some of her personal challenges during the pandemic while trying to prepare for UMAZ.
