Kate Taylor
Coach/Back Office Guru
Kate (also known as Coach Kate to a lot of people) is a lifelong runner and coach who officially joined the staff a little over two years ago. Currently she is responsible for a lot of the back room paperwork as well as our coaching programs for the shop but her connection to TRP goes way back. Her background in the sport is lengthy, having been running for almost 42 years. She started in the seventh grade because her friends were doing it and fell in love with it immediately. After running in high school, she joined the team at Villanova University. Following her time with Nova Nation, she went on to represent the United States at the 1996 Olympics in Atlanta, Georgia.
“It used to be winning the Olympic Trials. But I think that's been replaced by running the Reindeer Romp with my daughter and husband.”
FAVORITE RUNNING MEMORY:
“My Garmin Forerunner 55. It keeps track of my daily steps and helps me incorporate plenty of lifestyle activity into my routine since I am not able to run as much these days.”
“Keep moving forward in whatever way possible. Any combination of running and walking my body will allow.”
"I love hiking in the woods with my dogs, gardening, and generally just being outside."
NON-RUNNING HOBBIES:
“One of my nicknames is Congo Kate, after my birthplace."
