Donald Wade - Chairman's Message

Lorem Ipsum é um texto modelo da indústria tipográfica e de impressão. O Lorem Ipsum tem vindo a ser o texto padrão usado por estas indústrias desde o ano de 1500, quando uma misturou os caracteres de um texto para criar um espécime de livro. Este texto não só sobreviveu 5 séculos, mas também o salto para a tipografia electrónica, mantendo-se essencialmente inalterada. Foi popularizada nos anos 60 com a disponibilização das folhas de Letraset, que continham passagens com Lorem Ipsum, e mais recentemente com os programas de publicação como o Aldus PageMaker que incluem versões do Lorem Ipsum.

2024 RunNB Outstanding Contributors

Dean Strowbridge - Willow Grove, NB

Dean has been a main fixture on the NB running scene for about 25 years. Not only has he been running for a quarter century, but he has also been a top tier distance runner for most of that time.

If Dean didn’t win a race, he would be a keen observer of how/why the winner was a bit faster and would learn from those small defeats. Dean has been an astute student of running and in recent years started to give back that knowledge to young and upcoming runners.

Dean is now a distance coach for the Saint John Track Club. As a running mentor to new runners, Dean brings special qualities that go beyond technical knowledge. Some have described his coaching qualities as a role model who brings a positive & encouraging energy to all his athletes. He brings the same passion has a runner to his coaching and this love for his sport is contagious.

Dean has had lots of success in road racing and hold several provincial track records in both indoor and outdoor track.

Dean was awarded RunNB’s Male Runner of the Year in 2014. He has logged more than 200 RunNB road races placing in the top three in most of these events.

In 2016, shortly after his dear mother passed away, Dean started the Run For Renee 5K to honour her life. This event has been held in Quispamsis every month between April and October for the last nine years and has been a big success for all runners in Southern NB.

He touches everyone that meets him in a loving and positive way and some would describe Dean as having that special “Quiet Charisma”.
