#90 Wez Swain

What an absolute pleasure this was to chat with race director and proud Scillonian Wez Swain.


Based on the Isles of Scilly, 28 miles of the south west coast of Cornwall Wez, already an accomplished 'swim run' competitor took the bull by the horns and created the Scilly 60 Events company to showcase the beautiful running environment these isles provide.

We chat about his experiences of the Arc of Attrition and his solo swim out into the Atlantic to reach a remote lighthouse.

His enthusiasm is infectious and it's absolutely no surprise that his events have become incredibly popular and a much loved part of the running community calendar.

His pride and appreciation for his home on this spectacular group of isles shines through too.

I get a little tongue tied at the beginning of this episode and I must admit I was a little nervous for some reason before our chat, but Wez has that calming effect that all good race directors have and after a stutter and a laugh we were back on track for a really enjoyable chat.


I hope you enjoy it too.
