S2E12 -- Conversation with 2-time UMC Champion : Nick Mallett, Vagabond

Send us a Text Message.

In this episode I catch up with my Aussie mate Nick Mallett.  Nick has participated in ten 515 distance events and is a two time champion of Ultraman Canada.   You may know this Ohana member for his advice and commentary about Ultra’s as Thailand Ultras on Slowtwitch.  The handle he adopted after being banned from the site and reinstated.

Recently, Nick (age 58) posted about trying to attempt a SUB10 at IM Western Australia.  I had to see if he was serious about it or just starting another discussion.  Never one to shy away from the political side of the Ultra family, we also discuss the future of the sport.
