Happy Thanksgiving USA!

When Thanksgiving rolls around 515 athletes know that it is time for the Ultraman World Championships.

In this episode I speak with two athletes who will be competing in this year’s race.

Mark Moody is an EMT from Bellevue Washington who holds the 60+ age group record at Ultraman Canada. He has crewed numerous times at 515 races around the world and is now ready for his own adventure on the island. He doesn’t take things too seriously when at these events, except for trying to win the Kokua award.

Keri Mandell is a yoga entrepreneur who has raced at both UM Arizona and UM Florida (completing the McVeay double). She has competed in ultramarathons up to 100 miles and completed the World Marathon Challenge. These events have inspired her to write a book based on the experiences.
