Matthew Popham

Matthew is originally from Bristol in the UK, but moved to Perth in 2005 where he is a tax partner at KPMG. Matthew is responsible for the Telethon Adventurers participation in the Ice Marathon, raising funds to combat childhood cancer. He has been predominantly a rugby player and still plays now despite turning 40. Although he ran the London Marathon in 1998 as a 'one off' marathon, vowing to never run one again, he got back into running after moving to Perth. His main aims for the event main are to enjoy the run and make sure his friend Gareth Spencer gets to the end. Matthew is married with three kids - twin boys aged 13 and a 6 year old girl.
