About
Hi, I'm Coach Catherine, aka the PB PT. I'm a UKA Athletics Coach and Level 3 Personal Trainer, specialising in endurance athletes.
After 20 (long) years in the corporate rat race I decided to turn my passion for running into a career. I turned my back on the desk job and pursued a new set of qualifications in health, fitness and nutrition so that I could share my love of movement with others.
I am an endurance runner and compete for England and Great Britain Masters on the track, roads and cross country. I ran some very good times in my 30s but then ‘life happened’ and I thought my best running days were behind me. However, I set all my personal bests in my 40s after getting into lifting weights during lockdown and really gaining an understanding of how to combine weight training with cardiovascular training for optimal results.
Whether you’re looking to take up a sport or activity for the first time, come back after a break, run/cycle/swim faster or further than ever before or simply to continue to enjoy your sport as you get older, I’d love to help you to achieve those goals.
I specialise in sports nutrition, vegan, vegetarian and plant-based diets.
Strength and conditioning available 1-1 at PureGym, Colwick, Nottingham or online. Run coaching available online.
Book yourself in for a free Zoom consultation or drop me an email to discuss how we can get you moving towards those goals!

"I recommend Catherine to anybody looking to improve their strength with regards to running in particular. With no injuries and drastically improved strength I've beaten all of my previous PBs by significant margins."
