About Kate Avery

Born 1991. Kate Avery is a British athletics competitor.

Senior career Avery also ran internationally that year. She came ninth in the 3000 m at the 2014 European Team Championships then made her debut for England at the 2014 Commonwealth Games, running a personal best of 32:33.35 minutes to come fourth in the 10,000 m (beaten only by Kenyan opposition). Her third and final international outing that year was her most successful. At the 2014 European Cross Country Championships she ran in the senior race for the first time. Aiming for a top ten placing, she ran hard from the front and was rewarded with a silver medal after losing a close finish to teammate Gemma Steel. The two shared in the women's senior team title. As the top-ranked British indoor runner over 3000 m, she was initially invited by British Athletics to compete at the 2014 IAAF World Indoor Championships at the start of the year. However, the governing body then told her she was ineligible, not having obtained permission to miss the trials event. The body was criticised for giving the athlete confusing information.

In 2019, she competed in the senior women's race at the 2019 IAAF World Cross Country Championships held in Aarhus, Denmark. She finished in 30th place.
