EP186: Matthew Johnson is Running Across Texas
Description
Matt Johnson is an ultra-marathon runner, content creator and coach. After completing several incredible fitness feats so far in his life, Matt sets out to run across the state of Texas starting October 1, 2024. The purpose of the race is to raise money and awareness for vetrans across the nation.
Matt discusses the logistics behind the race, and how he plans to attack 850 miles over 17 days. To put this distance into perspective, it is the same distance from the Northern border of California to the Southern border of California.
If you want to hear about what training and nutrition goes into this event, Matt shares what he is doing the few months before Day 1 in El Paso.
Given the difficulty of such a race, Matt remains inspired by the thousands of veterans that he will help through his run. He has gained a ton of support from brands and individuals such as LSKD, Jocko Fuel, David Goggins, HyrdroJug, Fat and Weird Cookies and many more.
Stay tuned to Matt's journey starting October 1st as he runs from El Paso, TX to Galveston, TX.
