About Dean

Prior to run coaching I was a youth football coach for 25 years, and CADS (Canadian Adaptive Snowsports) coach for 26 years. I have been a part-time technology instructor at Lethbridge College. Currently I am also an Ultra race director.

Coaching Philosophy

I assess where you are and where you want to be. We work around your life to program appropriate training which will safely progress you toward your goal. Staying injury-free is an important parameter along with balancing your life obligations.
