Happy Birthday, Matt Scherer! You're the only guy we know who made a career out of running fast enough to help others break records. Who knew being chased by world-class athletes could be such an enviable job? Your pacing skills are legendary—rumor has it even clocks check their accuracy against your splits.

From setting perfect rhythms on tracks worldwide to guiding countless runners toward personal bests and historic milestones, you've truly mastered the art of leading from in front (literally). May this birthday lap around the sun bring you as much joy as all those times you effortlessly led champions across finish lines—and may no one dare pass you today!
