Bio

Off the field, I have a deep passion for music. As a performing artist under the name Hamza Mahdi, I’ve had the privilege of performing in front of crowds of 2000+ and opening for major artists like Action Bronson and Ohgeesy from Shoreline Mafia. Balancing music, school, work, family responsibilities, and my track career is challenging, but I manage it by focusing on a few productive days, followed by rest to avoid burnout. Staying grounded in my faith with five daily prayers keeps me centered and focused.

When it comes to motivation, I no longer look to others for inspiration. I’ve adopted a “Me vs. Me” mentality, always striving to be better than I was before—whether it’s my last race, assignment, or performance. It’s about personal growth and improvement. And, fun fact, Batman is my inspiration because, well, I am him.

Community involvement is also a huge part of who I am. I work with Penny Appeal, an organization that addresses global crises. Seeing athletes like Pascal Siakam and Khabib give back through charity reminds me of the importance of using my platform for good. Being involved in these efforts keeps me grateful and pushes me to excel, knowing I have the opportunity to make a difference.

Before any competition, I listen to the Quran and pray, putting my trust in God. It keeps me calm and focused, reminding me that everything is in His hands. Fun fact: I’m a superhero.

For aspiring athletes, my advice is simple—focus on being better than you were yesterday. The journey is about personal growth, and the only person you need to compete with is yourself. Oh, and my greatest pain in life? That I’ll never get to see myself perform live.
