S7E2 -- Age-Less at Ultraman Florida and UMAZ Athlete in Profile: Andy Yergler
Manage episode 471322045 series 2867595
Part one of this episode is a Ultraman Florida recap. First, I am joined by the youngest ever competitor to complete Ultraman Florida, Jacob Beldick. Followed by the newest 60-69 age group world record holder, Dougin Walker. Both athletes share their stories about the 2025 race. One is told from the front of the field and the other from the rear, but they both had amazing experiences.
In part two, I have an Ultraman Arizona (March 21-23, 2025) athlete preview including Andy Yergler who is my athlete in profile. Andy runs a non profit called Tri Recovery for assisting addicts to live healthier lives. He explains how he got to where he is today from a life of addiction that led to him being incarcerated at the age of 19.
Jacob ran in support of Save a Child’s Heart.
Andy is the co-founder of Tri Recovery.
