Kate Avery

Elite Runner

Run Coach

Kate has earned a GB vest 19 times across indoor, outdoor, cross country and, most recently, mountain running. She has 14 European medals and 2 World team medals, a 4th place finish in the 10,000m at the 2014 Glasgow Commonwealth Games and is currently the only British woman to have ever won the NCAA cross-country title.

Having left the track and cross-country behind, Kate is now reaching the same heights on the trails. 2022 saw her earn a top 10 finish at the European Mountain & Trail Running Championships in Spain and a top 20 finish at the World Mountain & Trail Running Championships in Thailand.

These experiences have taught Kate the value of a strong coach-athlete relationship - one that is built upon communication and a shared drive towards the goals of the individual. Her background gives her a wealth of knowledge on training processes and the ability to adapt plans to suit goals across multiple distances, terrains and for varying fitness levels and backgrounds.

Kate has a particular enthusiasm for coaching within a running group as she understands the value that others have played in her own journey. She is looking forward to building a community of individuals with shared values that helps each other to achieve the biggest or smallest of goals!

Kate also offers comprehensive and individualised coaching plans through Run2PB.
