In this episode of The Everyday Ironman Podcast, Mike and Ashley welcome Javier Clavelo—official announcer for Ironman 70.3 races across Mexico. Introduced by friend of the show JT Thomson, Javier shares his journey from Cuba to the finish line mic, fueled by a lifelong passion for culture, sport, and storytelling. He reflects on discovering endurance sports through his father, his background in radio and track & field announcing, and what race weekend really looks like behind the scenes. Javier also answers the long-debated question: is “You are an Ironman” universal, or does it change across languages? The conversation wraps with a fun idea of a future 70.3 relay—if logistics (and a lazy river swim) can be figured out.
