Entering UM because: To push myself to the limits.  Ultra(wo)man is the best ultra race on the planet. Ultra Distance events humble even the strongest athletes.  Ultraman Hawaii is mentally challenging as well as physically demanding.  Ultraman is special because of the athletes, the aloha, kokua and ohana.  After you do this race you become part of the Ultraman family.  There is no race, in my opinion, which compares to Hawaii.
