Race Announcing

“We found Matt after listening to him at the TC10K. We were instantly sold.
I went straight over to him and said he had to come back in 2 weeks and do
the Oak Bay Half. His talent, hard work, and level of professionalism are 3
reasons why he succeeded for us and can help your event sound better The nicest thing for me was he took care of that element of the race. It
allowed me to work in other areas. I’m glad we met, and I look forward to
next year. If your event is the 3rd week of May…consider him booked!”
Dave Niln – Race Director Oak Bay Half Marathon

“Matt Hill brings such enthusiasm and excitement to your event, you just can’t go wrong!” Jacqui Sanderson – Race Director TC10K

On The Run coaching

Matt has become a key influencer in the Kits running community and we are so fortunate he’s our run ambassador. While coaching the lululemon athletica West 4th running group, he led a comprehensive program which encouraged both half and full marathoners to complete a safe and healthy race. Through his own running adventures, Matt has inspired our guests and staff to pursue and achieve their own personal running goals. We’re excited to see where his sneakers take him next!
