About Becky

With a background in competitive swimming I learned at a young age the core ingredients of loving a sport comes from consistently working hard and setting small incremental goals to help you see the progress of that work. I applied this to 11 years of my swimming career before transferring this mentality towards a more focused approach on running. I began running in high school to cross train for swimming, then it became my main form of exercise, and now it is one of my passions. Since then I have transitioned from a 2-3x a week runner to a Boston Marathon Qualifier, Coach, and competitive road racer. My running growth has come from developing under and learning from my own coach, Pro Saucony Runner, Tim Ritchie who has instilled in me the core mindsets that have allowed me to flourish. As an educator, I have spent ten years learning how to take the things I know and believe to be true and help them become the core knowledge of others. If I know it and believe it, I promise you will too! As a coach my philosophy is centered around creating a strong, injury-proof base, and then develop the different parts of you as a runner in a strategic way while also keeping training interesting and fun. If something isn't working for you, we figure it out and make adjustments as we need to so that you truly feel like this is the right fit for you. My goal is to make sure you enjoy the process of improving, see results, and have fun, because well it's just running :) "The detail is amazing and exactly what so many people (including myself) need" - Athlete Mat

After the first view weeks of working together with Becky Taylor I can totally recommend her to everyone!! She helped me to bring structure into my training schedule, find a steady weekly mileage and - most important for me - reduce days off due to sickness which has been a big problem for me before. I am from Europe and I'm not a native English speaker but anyway I can state that this has never been a problem at all and she's very patient with me. Communication is very important if you get Online Coaching and this works super good with her! She has a lot of experience and understands the needs of her athletes. The training schedule was well prepared to my current needs and last but not least, it's really fun to work with her! 100% recommendation.
