Hi, my name is Matt and I love to run! I especially enjoy trail running. I am married to Susie and we have six children Connor-10, Jed-8, Jaxine-7, Evan-4, Eliza-2, and Susanna-0. Look for me at your next race, I wear the same bright yellow Twinkies shirt at all my races.

Did I know your wife was pregnant? I wish I had super-human-remembering skills like Smooth. Well, I hope your daughter has good hearing since her initials are E.A.R.

Wow, congrats. That makes 5 kids under the age of 8? Yikes!

Thanks for the comments everyone. Both baby and Momma are doing well. Burt, we did notice the her initials are E.A.R. We did this on purpose in hopes that when she is a teenager she we listen to us.
