He started out racing laps in a pool, and then laps on a track. With aspirations of racing against the best in the world, Morgan dedicated himself to a life on two feet and ran for the storied University of Colorado Boulder, where he contributed to two NCAA XC titles and was a 7x All-American.
Following his successful college career he embarked on a journey to become a professional runner, when one day he decided to email USAT. Three weeks later, Morgan won his first triathlon at Age-Group Nationals. Three years later, after deciding to go all-in, Morgan is racing for a medal at the 2021 Olympic Games.
