 Coach Kaylynn Martin has been a dedicated member of the Spokane Mercury family since 2017, bringing a strong background in athletics, a passion for distance running, and years of experience supporting young athletes.

A former high school runner herself, Kaylynn continued her athletic career beyond high school as a member of the All-Women’s Air Force Soccer Team, competing at a high level while serving in the United States Air Force. Her experience as both an athlete and a mother of four distance runners gives her a unique understanding of the commitment, discipline, and perseverance required to succeed in competitive running.

Since joining Spokane Mercury, Kaylynn has provided valuable continuity and leadership through multiple coaching transitions as head coaches have relocated. She has consistently stepped up to help keep the program moving forward, supporting athletes through training, competition, and the many challenges that come with developing as a young runner.

Her impact can be seen in the accomplishments of the athletes she has helped support and develop, including multiple Spokane Mercury All-American athletes. Her sons have also experienced tremendous success in the sport. Her oldest son currently runs for Whitworth University, while Ethan Martin competes for Eastern Washington University and has earned multiple All-American honors. Her youngest son, Landon Martin, continues to compete with Spokane Mercury and currently holds five All-American titles.

Kaylynn plays an important role in creating a focused and positive training environment. She helps implement training programs, keeps athletes engaged and motivated, leads drills, and encourages runners to stay disciplined as they build fitness and prepare for competition. Known for her energy, organization, and ability to keep a group of young athletes on task, she brings both structure and encouragement to every practice.

As a mother, former competitive athlete, military veteran, and longtime member of the Spokane Mercury coaching staff, Kaylynn understands that success is built through consistency, hard work, confidence, and a willingness to keep showing up. Her dedication to the athletes and genuine investment in their development make her an invaluable part of the Spokane Mercury coaching team.
