Founder of Taylored Training, an online run and strength coaching service based out of Phoenix, Arizona. Becky, swam competitively and coached swimming, taught HS biology for a decade along with some coaching in XT and conditioning for Lax. During the pandemic her and her hubby and I moved across the country and she turned coaching friends on the side into a full time gig. They live in Phoenix now with our 1.5 yr old and dog. Taylored Training has since expanded to a 2 coach operation.
