In the latest episode of “Mizzou Storytellers,” Dave Matter and Loretta Jones are joined by Mizzou track and field head coach Brett Halter, who shares some fascinating stories about his childhood and journey to Mizzou. The son of an FBI agent, Brett dreamed of following his father’s footsteps in fighting crime until his feet found another purpose — on the track. Brett talks about his path from college distance runner to volunteer track coach at Mizzou and how he took charge of the nation’s premiere throws program — and all the superstars the Tigers developed under his watch. Brett also discusses the newly constructed indoor track inside the Hearnes Center and the NCAA Cross Country Championships coming to Columbia in 2025.
