Meet Matilda: FAST Running’s Youngest Distance Dynamo

FAST Running - Matilda - Profile

At just 11 years oldMatilda has already covered more ground than most runners twice her age. Having traveled across Australia, she has now found a home among some of the country’s brightest endurance athletes as part of the FAST Females and middle-distance squad.

A passionate runner with a love for trail running and Saturday morning Park Runs, Matilda is ready to take her performance to the next level. Now training alongside experienced runners like Chloe, Joanne, Jaimi-Lee, David, Tom, and Chris, she is gaining valuable insights, learning the art of pacing, and pushing her limits under the guidance of Canberra Running Coach, Steve Dodt.

Her current goal? Breaking the 5-minute per kilometre barrier—a milestone that will cement her as a rising star in the endurance running scene. With her determination, work ethic, and love for running, there’s no doubt that Matilda has a bright future ahead.
