Matt Seng – Mentor

mseng

I started down this road a year ago when my dog slipped his leash disappearing into the wilderness (eventually he turned back on the path, presumably, looking for me.) I swore he would never distance me again; that it was time to turn this nearly 40-year-old frame back into a fit and healthy form. Now, as I am accomplishing that goal, I can be here as your confidante, your inspiration, your words of caution, and your outlet for sharing new discoveries. If you had told me 4 months ago I would run 6 miles, I’d have laughed and said that running is for crazies. And now here I am, one of those crazies preparing for my first marathon, passing miles without a care, enjoying the camaraderie of running partners, and the surprise of a shouted “Go Team!” from strangers and friends alike. Being a mentor gives me the chance to share all the crazy ideas in my head and to be here for all of yours as you begin this journey toward the finish line and your new life.
