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.
