Hey Everyone!

My name is Matt and I'm one of the newer pace leads for Philly. You can usually find me helping out with the 10s. Just wanted to come on here and reintroduce myself and express my gratitude for how much joy this community has brought me since I joined back in May. My favorite part of Endorphins has to be meeting new people so please if you see me at any of the runs do not hesitate to come up and say hi. Little bit about me I found running while in grad school and after playing college football for four years I needed a different mental and physical challenge. Running was always my least favorite form of exercise so it was exactly what I was looking for. Fast forward some years and I'm now about 2 years into my running journey having done my first marathon last fall (MCM) and currently training for my first ultra this May. Excited to share many more miles with everyone and hope to see a lot of you tonight at our happy hour run!
