Kate from North West Leicestershire
Kate has always enjoyed being physically active. From her early days competing in swimming and running events to her current routine of running, swimming, and cycling, she embodies the essence of an active lifestyle. Growing up with a love for outdoor activities, she cherishes memories of family walks and badminton matches, as well as tending to her beloved garden.
Despite facing challenges with an eating disoder in her twenties, Kate turned to exercise as a source of solace and strength. Running became her passion, leading her to conquer road races, cross country events, and even the prestigious Great North Run. Her competitive spirit, though mostly directed towards self-improvement, fuels her drive to push boundaries and achieve personal bests.
Now, as a Let's Get Moving Champion, Kate is on a mission to inspire others to embrace an active lifestyle. With her enthusiasm and encouragement, she aims to support those who may lack confidence in their own journey towards fitness. For Kate, it's not just about the physical benefits; it's about the joy of connecting with others and sharing the empowering experience of being active.
