Mike Taylor is our Advanced Sprints coaches. Mike can often be seen leading the pack of runners he is training with around the track or down the backstretch. Although he is the coach, more often he is the mentor/athlete who is imparting the latest training technique to his young charges. Mike is definitely a track junkie, and we are happy to have him work with our athletes as they reach to achieve their potential.
Mike competed as a sprinter at the U of S and still competes with the club.
