What inspired you to pursue such a daunting endeavor as Ultraman Florida?
This sparked a curiosity in me, and I began to take a good look at it. The training aspect was easy, but the real challenge lay in balancing it with my daily life managing work, household chores, and children. I spent years creating a lifestyle allowing me to train for Ultraman, ensuring my family was okay before I fully committed to the intense training.
Moreover, my past experiences, including my training for the Ironman, played a significant role in shaping my decision. The discipline, determination, and mental toughness I have developed during my Ironman training laid a strong foundation for his Ultraman journey.
How do you manage your time effectively to prioritise both your professional and athletic pursuits?
Balancing a corporate career with a passion for endurance sports was initially challenging, but I gradually learned to manage and prioritize. During my tenure at Solidcore, McAfee, and Intel, I initiated Running and Cycling clubs. We organized numerous bike rides and participated in several running events. I was fortunate that these companies recognized the importance of employee fitness and well-being and supported these initiatives.
