Welcome to episode 223 of the Löw Tide Böyz - A Swimrun Podcast!
We’ve got another “feel good” episode for everyone this week. Joining us from the U.K. are Jono Hey and Rob Bell, A.K.A., Team Ripped Club London. These guys have a great origin story and we had a blast chatting with them about all things Swimrun, as we are wont to do.
But first…
This episode is brought to you by our friends at FORM Swim. They recently released their new Smart Swim 2 goggles and these things are a game changer!
Training Update
Training for ÖTILLÖ Whistler begins next week. Chris is done with running “extra” long for a while and we start keeping the psychic tether a bit more taught as we build up for the race.
Shoutout
This week’s shout out goes to our friends Nicky and Chelsey Bailey, the mother and daughter duo behind As Keen As Mustard Events. (Check out Episode 56 of the show to learn why they are awesome) We love everything that they are doing to help grow the sport in the U.K. and they recently announced a new event that we think is more than worthy for a shoutout. They are hosting a Training and Kit Testing day that is open to everyone with a bunch of experienced Swimrunners on hard to help lower the barrier to entry for the sport that we all know and love. The event is on June 1st at Sibson Lake in Stibbington. Go to their website to learn more!
Feats of Endurance
This week’s winner is getting more of a cumulative award. Friend of the pod and ½ of Team Fearless Fallons (Episode 114 of the show) Samantha Fallon successfully finished a “Swim 100 miles in 100 days” challenge over the weekend. Strong work on being so consistent!

Show Business
We’re going to be doing an AMA-style show in the next few weeks so DM/email/messenger pigeon us with all your burning Swimrun questions. If we don’t know the answer, don’t worry because we probably know who does.

It was great to chat with Jono and Rob. We’ve emailed back and forth for a while and we were stoked to finally get to sit down for a proper natter. We chatted about all things Swimrun and had a lot of fun.
Make sure you head over to Sketchplanations.com to learn more about Jono’s creative “side project” and order the new book!
Enjoy!
