Send us a Text Message.

Today’s episode opens with a clip from YouTube, where race director Steve Brown welcomes racers to the 2016 Ultra520K Canada.  Steve is the OG race director for UMC and has also directed Ironman Canada. I find out if Steve intends to make another run at city council in Penticton and some other exciting breaking Tri news.

Steve King Stories features an athlete who previously appeared on the podcast in episode 8 of this season, Jeremy Howard.

Finally, I catch up with Van Sanchez in Mexico who will be running the UltraMX515 Non-Stop on April 29 and 30th.  Follow the race at their Instagram page.

This is your last chance to vote in  the 515 Podcast Facebook Ultra Race March Madness bracket pool.   The final match up closes on Saturday April 16 at midnight PST.
