S1E1--Meet the legendary Steve King : Part One (The athlete)

515 : The Ultra Podcast

Episode Summary:

Welcome to the first episode! I am starting it off with a bang. I completed a lengthy interview with Ultraman race announcer Steve King. So lengthy, that I decided to split it into three parts. In this episode Steve shares stories of the life changing events he attended during his athletic career as a race walker, triathlete and endurance runner.
You will also be introduced to upcoming Ultraman Canada 2021 participant Chad Bentley. Chad is a well-respected plant-based endurance athlete. He is a marathoner, Ultra-marathoner, multi-time Ironman finisher, 2-time Ultraman finisher, 2-time Ultra 520 finisher, and the first Canadian to compete in the EPIC 5 Challenge.
