Matt Johnson - Running 840+ Miles Across Texas, Made for More & Ultrarunner Phenom

On this episode, the boyz had on special guest Matt Johnson! Matt is an ultra-marathoner and running content creator who lives in Austin, TX. He has an impressive 223k followers on Instagram and is currently training to run across the entire state of Texas, covering around 840 miles! His goal is to raise $100k for charity during this run, so please consider checking out the link in his Instagram bio to donate to a non-profit that helps veterans!

Matt is fairly new to the ultra and content scene. Just a few years ago, he was in the Army/National Guard when he decided to leave the military and take a chance on himself in Austin, TX. You will quickly see on this episode why Matt has grown so much: he is hilarious and is never afraid to be himself. His personality definitely shines through during this conversation, but we also get to see a side of him you may not always see on a 10 second reel he posts. This conversation was a ton of fun, we can't thank Matt enough for coming on. Enjoy!
