515 : The Ultra Podcast
S2E8 -- Connecting the dots – Ohana style (with guests Jen McVeay & Jeremy Howard)
Over the next few episodes I will be profiling athletes from the upcoming Ultraman Florida and Ultraman Arizona.
My first conversation today is with Jen McVeay who is the co-race director of UM Florida and Race Director for UM Arizona. We discuss how she became a part of the Ohana and why she chose to bring Ultraman to Arizona.
Steve King talks about “El Toro”, Inaki de la Parra. Inaki has been the champion at UMUK and the Ultraman World Championships in 2016.
The Ultraman Florida 2022 athlete profile features Jeremy Howard who was at the UMWC race with Inaki in 2016 as a crew member. He has raced there three times himself. This will be his first race in Florida– or maybe not?
