About Me

Age: 37

Kate is a powerhouse on and off the track. An Elite Athlete for Nedbank Running Club with an impressive list of accolades, she’s proof that speed and strength go hand in hand. As a high school mathematics teacher and cross-country coach, she’s shaping young minds while leading the pack in her own athletic pursuits.

When she’s not logging 100km a week in training, you’ll find her scuba diving, hitting the gym, or tending to her garden—because slowing down just isn’t in her DNA. As a dedicated mom of two, she embodies the ultimate balance of career, fitness, and family, proving that with discipline and passion, you can truly have it all.
