S5E6 -- Ultraman Hall of Famer : Suzy Degazon
Fifteen time Ultraman Hawaii athlete, Suzy Degazon, joins me to speak about her recent induction into the Ultraman World Championships Hall of Fame that occurred at this year's event.
Suzy has a prolific ultra triathlon career of over 450 events. Just as interesting as some of her athletic endeavors are her stories of the other parts of her life. Suzy has managed to turn some bad situations around and live her best life as a scuba instructor which has also allowed her to travel around the world.
