This week on the podcast, we welcome the one and only Scott Bunny—fellow Delirious WEST runner, race director, and the man who probably spends as much time gazing at the stars mid-race as he does watching where his feet are going.
Scott’s journey to ultra running is anything but traditional. He grew up in WA, served 18 years in the Navy (including in submarines!), and only took up running in his 40s… by accident. Since then, he’s become a barefoot runner, race builder, and community pillar for long-distance crazies.
In this episode, we chat about:
🌊 Life under the ocean and how submarine service shaped Scott’s mental resilience
👟 Discovering running (literally) while escaping the London rain
🦶 How barefoot running changed everything for him
🌌 His habit of stargazing mid-run… and the occasional face plant it causes
🎽 What goes into directing one of Australia’s most iconic ultras—Delirious WEST
😅 Why he’s more interested in people than podiums
Scott’s Running Wisdom:
✅ Ease into barefoot running—your calves will thank you later
✅ Look up—but maybe not while running on trails
✅ Every runner has a story worth hearing, and a community worth building
If you love quirky, heartfelt, and genuinely helpful conversations about running, this episode will land just right. Whether you’re chasing your first trail run or your next 200 miler, Scott’s reflections will leave you smiling (and maybe checking your shoelaces).
