This triathlete began swimming before he was born.

Well, technically, it was his mom who was swimming while she was pregnant with him, doing laps in the local Guelph pool.

Although active in many different sports throughout his life, Steve didn't race his first triathlon till the age of 25.

Following two triathlon races in 2010, Steve looked for a coach to help him do better the following year.

After seeing a local article about the first runner in Wellington County to run a sub-4 min mile, Steve decided to reach out to the runner.

Thankfully, the Olympian Taylor Milne was open to helping Steve for the following season and with his help Steve became the Ontario provincial triathlon champion for the 25-29 age group.
