Run S.M.A.R.T. Advisory Council Member Qualifies For Olympic Trials

Matt Byrne, member of the esteemed Run S.M.A.R.T. Advisory Council, won the Steamtown Marathon this past Sunday in an Olympic Trials qualifying time of 2:21:50. Matt took the lead around 21 miles and held on to be the first back to back winner in Steamtown's history. This past January Matt broke his tailbone and was unsure he'd ever run competitively again. His comeback is an amazing story. We look forward to cheering him on at the Trials in NYC next year. Read the article on his win here. Results here.

Our Advisory Council gives us tremendous support and knowledge from their own personal experiences. I want to take this moment to thank them and show our appreciation for spending time to help us become better coaches. Congrats Matty!
