Iwan Thomas, MBE represented Great Britain and Northern Ireland at the Olympic Games in the 400 metres and 4 x 400 metre relay event. He still holds the UK record for the fastest 400 metres ran.
Outside of his athletic achievements Iwan has been engaged in various incredible outdoor events and challenges. In 2021, Iwan completed the Centurion Running South Downs Way 100, a gruelling hundred-mile race, in support of the charity Group B Strep Support.
He was the winner of this year’s Channel 4 Celebrity Hunted, competing alongside Paralympic gold medallist Richard Whitehead and evading the hunters across the UK. Iwan covered 1,540 miles across the two weeks of this adventure, travelling between the start point at the London Eye, to extraction in Formby Hills.
