@@septembergutierrez6345 Matt is supposedly banned from future NY Marathons. Had his team follow him on e-bikes to record / make content and they were in everyone’s way! Some runners were unable to grab water because the bikes were in the way and I heard his brother on one of the bikes ran over another runners foot and broke his running shoe :/

@@justinehunter4488 No 'supposedly' about it, he will never participate in the NYC Marathon again, he has a lifetime ban. At least one of his sponsors (Runna) has cut ties with him as well. This was recorded about a month before the race based on him saying he's going to the Chicago Marathon next weekend. I've never seen his videos. Why's he wearing 2 watches? (looks like an Apple & Coros). Is that his 'look at me' kind of thing?

@@therapygrindLooks like one’s a Garmin and the other is an Apple Watch. Garmin to keep track of fitness and Apple to use as a smartwatch (respond to texts, answer calls, etc). Just my guess though! 🤷🏽‍♀️

Giving a platform to someone who is inconsiderate of other people, repeatedly violates rules in world major marathons, you should really vet your guests before interviewing them.
