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

S4E2 -- Ultraman Florida 2023 Race Preview
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.
