"Running taught me the power of perseverance and the beauty of community. GW Active was created to share that journey, to inspire others to push their limits, and to build a world where every stride brings us closer together."

– Matt Wood

Fueled by the adrenaline rush of marathons and the camaraderie forged on long-distance trails, I've experienced the highs and lows of pushing my body to the limit. Victories on the global stage were countered by setbacks like missing the World Championships due to a nagging Achilles issue. These challenges, however, are where true grit is built – the kind it takes to conquer any distance.

At GW Active, we share that same passion for pushing boundaries, but not just for elite athletes. We’re dedicated to the everyday heroes of mass participation events – the marathoners, the mud-run enthusiasts, the weekend warriors on the track. We celebrate their journeys, from the initial sign-up jitters to the triumphant finish line cross.
Our investment philosophy at GW Active goes beyond just numbers. We understand the transformative power of sport, the way it fosters a sense of community and personal achievement. We want to be partners, not just investors, for the passionate individuals who organize these events. Together, we can create experiences that inspire a new generation to lace up their shoes and chase their own personal bests.

Meet our team

Matt Wood and Ben Green, both accomplished runners with a deep passion for the sport, co-founded RunThrough to share their love of running with the broader community.

Matt Wood

Co-founder
From a young age, Matt Wood was destined to be a runner. Naturally quick over sprints and inspired by his father, a marathoner with a time of 2:30 and the North of England Athletics Chairperson, Matt embraced running wholeheartedly. He excelled in various distances before specializing in middle-distance running at 14. Matt won his first national title in the U15 category over 800m and set a British record in the U17 category over 1500m, a record that stood for 10 years. He represented his country twice in Europe, securing victories on both occasions. Matt’s promising athletic career continued on a sports scholarship at Loughborough University, but a series of injuries, culminating in a broken femur, shifted his focus. As the Loughborough Athletics Club Chairperson, he gained valuable experience in event organization and networking within the athletics community. Transitioning to marketing, entrepreneurship, and business, Matt continued running, recently breaking 3 hours in the marathon and remains actively involved in RunThrough events.

Ben Green

Co-founder
Ben Green’s running journey is deeply rooted in his family history, with a father who was an age-group world 1500m record holder and a national champion, and an uncle who achieved impressive times in various distances, including a World Championship team bronze medal. Ben’s running achievements began early, medalling at national championships at 15 and winning the 1500m Northern Championships at 18. He pursued athletics seriously at Loughborough University on a scholarship, representing England four times and ranking in the top 10 U20s globally for 800m. After university, Ben joined Unilever’s Finance Graduate Scheme in London, where he used running for its mental health benefits. Notably, he set world records for the fastest father/son marathon and half marathon with his dad and ran a 2:30 marathon.
