The Intuitive Runner - Episode 4 DU135 breakdown with Matt Russell

Welcome to the Intuitive Runner with Nigel Hill. I am an ultra-trail runner, father, husband and business owner of NHL Landscaping. I began running in high school, doing triathlons and then moved to VFL footy, played for Williamstown FC before moving to different leagues across Victoria, after I retired from footy at age 32 and did his first Melbourne Marathon in 2012 two days before my daughter Eliza was born.&nbsp; What I learnt from the first marathon would shape how I would approach every other event I would do in the future. That marathon became the foundation and I built on it with every race,That formula for success got me to my ultimate achievement of Winning Down Under 135-mile race in 2021 and the GSER 100 mile in 2022 and a few other podium places in between. I am someone who takes the trial-and-error process and I make it work for me, squeezing every little piece of information out of each experience and using it to move forward. Reflection is a superpower. My philosophy is that there are never any mistakes just new information to gather and use, that trusting yourself and your body to make the next right move for you is everything, when you have that trust you gather evidence towards the next great thing that you can achieve. We truly can do anything we put our minds to.
