While at the University of Alberta, Brian dedicated his time to the Cross country and Track and Field programs.  As captain of the Golden Bears, the team won two Bronze medals at the Canadian Inter-University Championships and three Canada West titles.  He was a two time academic all Canadian and in his final year won the Wilson Trophy for leadership and commitment to the program.  His personal best was finishing 19th at the Canadian University Championships in 2007.  On the track Brian has competed at distances from the 1km to 5km.  His personal best time of 2:30.5 (1000m) in Winnipeg and 4:00.7 (1500m) in Edmonton are highlights.

This summer (2008) Brian won the Timex Series with victories at the Great Human Race, Red Deer Half Marathon, and the Melissa’s Road Race in Banff.   Brian also competed for Canada at World Mountain Running Trophy in Switzerland helping Team Canada to a 13th pace finish.  In the fall leaving his comfort zone of 10km races Brian won the BMO Kelowna International Marathon in a time of 2:39.55.   In 2009 Brian has started well winning the Provincial Indoor Championships, the St Albert 10 miler, and the Red Deer Half Marathon.  Brian is gearing up for the 2009 Cross Country Nationals in back in Guelph Ontario which is his goal race of the year.

Brian brings a wealth of experience to the coaching team for his continued development within the sport.  He didn’t start running competitively until 2000 but has steadily improved and has far exceeded his early aspirations in the sport.  From excellent coaching mentors in Brian’s life, he believes that personal bests are never out of reach with a long term vision.  Brian still competes competitively in cross country and road races across Canada.

Brian will focus solely on running development.  With many years of program design, understanding a proper taper, and race strategy, he will bring APTS athletes to a new level of excellence.  His team approach, energy, and support for athletes will be contagious.

Last year Brian helped numerous APTS athletes achieve personal bests in various distances and he is excited to continue the development for years to come.  Brian also brings with him an extensive race preparation (tapering) and race strategy experience.

During years of competitive hockey, Marc always enjoyed the strength and conditioning component of the game.  Getting prepared physically in the summer for the fall training camps was an area that Marc excelled at.  Year after year, Marc’s commitment to fitness was evident with his high scores in the testing. When his playing career was over he decided to make use of his training skills and experience to train hockey players off ice.

For the next 8 years Marc worked with many elite junior, college and professional hockey players from all over the world.  It was very gratifying to watch these players attain their fitness goals but something was missing.  Marc missed the training and competing himself and was looking for something to fill the void. When he met his wife Susan she was involved in triathlon. Marc decided he would teach himself how to swim and buy a road bike so he could train with her and try something different.  This experiment turned into a passion and the hockey conditioning was replaced with swimming, biking, running and racing all over the country.

To date, Marc has completed 5 Ironmans including the World Ironman Championships in Kona with a time of 9:54.  His marathon resume includes a 2:44 Chicago Marathon, a 2:47 Edmonton marathon, and a 2:55 Boston marathon where he completed part of the race with Lance Armstrong.

His desire and focus to constantly achieve personal best times is addictive to those around him and translates well to endurance Coaching.
