Today on the podcast is newly minted Olympian Matt Wilkinson!
Matt crossed the line in second, finishing in 8:23.00, securing his Olympic spot for Team USA.
Matt was the race leader through six laps before Kenneth Rooks made his move to the front with 800 meters remaining. Those two pulled away from the rest of the pack over the final lap, with Wilkinson turning in the fastest final 400-meters(59.87) in the field.
Matt was a 2xDIII Champion while at Carleton College before ultimately finishing out his college career at the University of Minnesota, where he had a successful career.
Matt runs for Under Armour Mission Run Dark Sky.
In today's conversation, Matt takes me through the emotion of making the Olympics, what it's taken to get to this point in his career, his time in DIII, his hopes for the future, and so much more!
