Recent Races: First time Ultraman.  2006 Ironman Arizona (10:36:02) Numerous marathons and trail runs in Borneo.  Many centuries and double century rides.

Entering UM because: The longer the events, the better I enjoy them.  This distance would be a first for me (all together in 3 days).  I believe that it will be a great self-discovery.  I am looking forward to meeting the group of people participating in this event and their families/crews!
