ⓘ About Matt Fitzgerald
He got his start as an editor for Multisport magazine, and also worked for active.com, Triathlete, and Competitor Group before he struck out on his own. He’s a brand ambassador for Mizuno and is a Training Intelligence Specialist for PEAR Sports. Matt’s in demand as a public speaker and travels all over the United States and internationally to lead seminars and clinics for coaches and athletes. Matt became a runner at the age of eleven, after he ran the last mile of the 1983 Boston Marathon with his dad, who had run the entire thing, and his two brothers. By that time, he was already a writer, a comedic poet to be more specific, having declared his intentions to make his future career as a writer when he was just nine. And he never changed his mind. Rising to prominence with the Publication Order of Non-Fiction Books series, Matt Fitzgerald has since expanded their repertoire to include numerous successful works across various genres. Their writing style, characterized by compelling narratives and memorable characters, has earned them a dedicated global readership with millions of fans worldwide.
