The Talk of The Town – Simon Duffy & Chris Butler | Julian Mathews, The Spectacle
In this episode of The Talk of the Town, hosts Simon Duffy and Chris Butler sit down with Julian Mathews — Olympian, Commonwealth Games athlete, and now co-founder of The Spectacle, a fast-growing running event based in Nelson.
Julian shares his inspiring journey from Nelson College to the 2016 Rio Olympics, his tough decision to step away from basketball (despite deep family ties), and how international experiences shaped his athletic and personal growth. Now back home, he’s helping lead Matthews Eyewear and has co-launched The Spectacle, a unique running and trail event attracting international talent to the heart of Nelson.
