Today’s guest is someone you’re going to want to keep your eyes on — Dominic Matthias. He’s a rising star out of Moore High School in Oklahoma, and even though he’s still early in his high school career, his times already speak for themselves. We’re talking 3:56 in the 1500m, a 1:53 in the 800, and some seriously strong performances across multiple distances — both on the track and in cross country.
But beyond the stopwatch, Dominic brings a work ethic, focus, and level-headedness that’s rare to see at his age. He’s not just running fast — he’s building something.
So today, we’re going to talk about the grind, the growth, and the goals that are shaping his journey. We’ll get into race strategy, pre-race routines, and even some off-the-track stuff to get a fuller picture of the person behind the performances.
Whether you’re a fellow runner, a coach, or just someone who loves seeing young athletes chase greatness — this is a conversation for you.
So let’s get into it.
