About Triathlon Saskatchewan

Mark Nagy

President

I am from Prince Albert and have lived here almost all my life. I have been in the construction industry for the last 38 years. I have been married since 1987, and have three children and one grandchild.

I watched the Frank Dunn Triathlon in 1986 and decided that I could do it, there were a few people that I knew competing. So that winter I taught myself to swim, which was no easy task.

So in the summer of 1987, drove to compete in the Weyburn Triathlon, hoping that I would not know anybody! This is where I met a Saskatchewan Triathlon legend in Don Gallo. I finished that race and absolutely fell in love with this sport. Also completed my first Frank Dunn a couple of weeks later, had to stop with bike problems several times, but able to get it Dunn. For the next 14 years, I competed in sprints, and Olympic distant races, as well as took over as Race Director of the Fran Dunn in 1991, and to this day continue to be Race Director. About this time we started the PA Tri Club, and I am the only original member to be still involved. In 2000 I competed in my first Half Ironman in Stoney Plain, to date I have completed 29 Half Distance races. The next year in 2001 I completed my first Ironman Canada, which I continued to do for 11 consecutive years. I also competed in the Challenge series in Penticton, as well as Ironman Florida, Chattanooga, Arizona, and Mont Tremblant. I am looking forward to competing this August in Penticton for my 18th Ironman. I am in my second stint with the Sask Tri-Board, served for a few years in the early 90s and have been on the board for the last 10 years. Really looking forward to what this Board can accomplish and am happy with the direction we are heading in!!!

Drew Nowlan

Clubs & Membership Committee Chair

I’m a Saskatchewan transplant, originally from Ontario. I got my start in endurance sports in with a full marathon here in Regina a few years back and I’ve been hooked ever since. My first venture into triathlons came a few years later mostly participating in sprint distances. As someone still relatively new to the sport, I can bring a fresh perspective to a new triathlete looking to get active within the triathlon community.

As a family, we have been active in the triathlon community for a number of years with both children competing in KOS, Living Sky, Echo Lake, BGMI and many out of province Triathlons.
