<p>Welcome to episode 129 of the<a href="https://lowtideboyz.com/"> Löw Tide Böyz - A Swimrun Podcast!</a></p><p>We have a fun one this week! Fresh off of the heels of the <a href="https://www.exswimrun.se/">EX SWIMRUN</a>’s ARK SUPERSPRINT and EX22 events we have Race Director <a href="https://lowtideboyz.com/podcast/nicholas-roman-co-founder-of-ex-swimrun">Nicholas Roman</a> back on the show to chat about these trailblazing races. It is becoming an annual tradition to have Nicholas on the show and we’re here for it!</p><p>But first...</p><p>Training Update</p><p><a href="https://www.odysseyswimrun.com/casco">Ödyssey Swimrun Casco Bay</a> is a month away! We had a great first Swimrun practice (and first Swimrun since <a href="https://www.trisignup.com/Race/NC/Nebo/SwimRunNCLakeJames">Swimrun Lake James</a>) at our training grounds of Aquatic Park in San Francisco. We were out there for 3+ hours and it was cool to see all of our time in the pool and on the track expressing itself. We’re dialing it back a bit this week but have some pretty big weeks leading up to Casco Bay as we are essentially training through that race on our way to ÖTILLÖ.</p><p>Shoutouts</p><p>This week we are shouting out Alex Sheen from the U.K. We love hearing from our listeners but we especially love hearing about how their first Swimrun adventures went. Alex has definitely gotten the Swimrun bug and in short order has already gotten a couple of Swimruns under his belt and is loving it. Well, we’re loving it that you’re loving it Alex. See you in Austin in November.</p><p>Feats of Endurance</p><p>This week we are shouting out our friend Stirling Myles of <a href="https://lowtideboyz.com/podcast/team-run-for-tacos">Team Run for Tacos</a>. He’s been doing some cool training up in Montreal and recently ran a quirky “unsanctioned” race called a RUNK where folks meet at a random subway station and then get race directions from there.
