Episode 59 - Scott Rice, Managing Director, Quantum Events. - a podcast by Mass Participation World

The Aid Station has had a strong Antipodean flavour this week as we close off in Auckland New Zealand talking to Scott Rice, Managing Director, Quantum Events.

Like parts of Australia, its exciting times for the industry in New Zealand where events are able to come back without social distancing limitations.

Its been something of a roller-coaster for Scott and his team. They had to cancel the last three races in their Ocean Swim series (www.oceanswim.co.nz) due to COVID-19 earlier in the year but this week were able to launch their seven race series for 2020/21.

Scott shares how being decisive and courageous as a leader in the early stages of COVID when he decided to cancel the events lifted the pressure of planning multiple "what-if" scenarios and focusing on the next series.

Listen to the end to hear his inspiring story of age being no barrier and the joy of high-fiving an 85 year old competitor who participated in every race of the series.
