S3E2 -- Ultra 520K Canada Athlete in Profile : Ramon Lopez Mendizabal

Send us a Text Message.

In this episode I speak with Ohana athlete, Ramon Lopez Mendizabal, in what was originally set up as an Ultra 520K Canada Athlete in Profile.   As happens in the 515 world, plans change at the last minute and I learned, during our conversation, that Ramon will not be attending the race this year after all.

Still, Ramon has a wealth of stories to share about epic events that he has participated in and his work life is pretty interesting too.   He has competed in Ultraman Israel, 16 IM’s, multiple ultra-marathons, and over 50 marathons around the world. 

So the new title of this episode has become : Ohana Guest -- Ramon Lopez Mendizabal.
