Matt Hughes, you probably know the accolades by now, National Record Holder in the steeple with an 8:11, multiple time world championship finalist, Pan Am gold medalist, Olympic finalist, 2x NCAA Champion. In 2019 he made a bold move, he left the biggest track and field group in the world of his own accord. Citing the reason that he had fallen out of love with the sport, he picked up, moved to Toronto and started training with Dave Reid, and a mix of blue collar runners, like Kyle Wyatt and Paddy Birch. Things appear to be working for him, as he’s since run PBs in the 5, an indoor 13:13, and the 15. Matt’s picking up and getting ready to make a big splash at the Tokyo games this year with a run of races and a stint at altitude in Europe, and we caught him just hours before he took off.
