Cathy Myers has been active most of her life. She grew up in West Africa, where she learned to play not only flag football, basketball and track, but also field hockey, soccer and net ball, to name a few. Upon returning to the United States to attend Auburn University, it was soccer that remained her favorite sport.
While competing on both a competitive women's soccer team and a competitive co-ed team, a fellow soccer player asked Cathy to go for a run. She readily accepted, believing she was fit. To her surprise, she ran one mile (too fast for endurance running, she now knows) then had to slow to a walk. That wasn't going to happen again! She started training for local 5k's and became fascinated by running. She attended clinics, read books and magazines, participated in running camps, and drove her new running buddies crazy with questions.
Many of her running partners were also participating in cycling and triathlons and, eventually, she had to try both of those activities. Meanwhile, Cathy's adventures in marathoning were taking her to locations where opportunities for hiking were too good to pass up. You are welcome to view photo journals from a few of her adventures (see links at the bottom of this page).
Formerly an attorney, a chief financial officer, and a successful business manager, Cathy is now a veteran coach. She has coached more than 1500 runners, walkers and triathletes, including guiding beginning athletes, coordinating speed improvement programs, and coaching marathoners, ultramarathoners and ironmen through their preparation for events.
