Will Rogers has travelled the world competing in 515 events which include Ultraman Canada, Ultra 520K Canada, Ultraman Hawaii, Ultra MX 515, Ultraman Florida, Ultraman Australia and Ultraman Israel.  When not competing himself he is often sharing his experience by crewing for other athletes.

In this episode, Will shares stories from many of those events from both the perspective of athlete and crew member.

Will works as a paramedic in the Vancouver area and has volunteered to use those skills helping people in Ukraine during the war.  He tells us how and why he got involved and what a day in a war zone is like as a volunteer medic.
