Adam Peruta, assistant professor in the Department of Strategic Communication, is currently in Hawaii preparing for the Ultraman World Championships, Nov. 26-28. 

The Ultraman is a 3-day, 318.6-mile, individual ultra-endurance triathlon in which participants swim 6.2 miles, bike 261.4 miles, and run 52.4 miles.

“Competing at Ultraman Canada this past August changed my life,” says Peruta on his website. “It was the hardest challenge I have undertaken … In the past 17 years, only 15 athletes have completed both of these events in the same year. I will be the 16th.”

Peruta is also using his efforts to raise funds for the Endure to Cure Foundation, a non-profit that raises money for organizations that research, treat, and provide care for pediatric cancer patients. To donate, please visit: http://www.peruta.com/donate.html
