Join Nora in annoying Bill about Ironman and why exoskeleton experts have a problem with this analogy.
Race director of Ultraman Florida, Jen McVeay, and the voice of Ultraman, Steve King join me to preview the athletes attending the 2023 version of the race on February 9 - 11. We discuss some of the athletes' race resumes and connections to the Ultra family.
In the second part of the episode I have a conversation with one of the athletes - Amy Jo Jenkins from Arkansas. This will be Amy’s first 515 distance event and she shares some of the anxieties of a rookie 515 athlete who will be racing with a rookie crew.

Not every athlete who challenges the 515 distance has completed 20 Ironmans, or have been winners in their age groups, or are Ultra marathon junkies. Some just work their way up the distances and prepare to take on the 515 distance with a hope of just finishing. My guest today, Gloria Aguilera, did not do any of that. Her first triathlon was the Ultra 355 in Cozumel and now she is my guest as the UltraMX 515 athlete in profile.
She is lucky to have an experienced guide in the form of husband Jose Postigo, a 2 time finisher of UltraMX 515 and 2 time finsiher of the UltraMX 515 Non Stop. He also joins our conversation and shares some of his stories about those races.
Gloria brings a great perspective to the 515 personal challenge. She recognizes her athletic shortcomings and is not out to win it all. Both her and Jose are in it for the fun, the Ohana, and to live a healthy lifestyle.
Steve King shares the background of the UltraMX 515 race director and coach of Gloria, Van Sanchez.
