Adam Sieben (2024)

Track & Field

Adam Sieben’s quick stride took him all the way to Costa Rica for an international track and field competition.

The local sprinter was selected to Team Canada for the 2023 North American, Central American and Caribbean U-18 Athletics Championships. At the meet, he competed in the 100-metre dash and stopped the clock in 11.14 seconds. Sieben didn’t qualify for the final. The eventual gold-medallist, however, was only steps quicker, at 10.56 seconds.

Entering the event, Sieben’s personal-best time in the 100-metre was 10.8 seconds, which he ran in Surrey earlier in 2023.

Sieben trains and competes with the Prince George Track and Field Club. In 2022 with the Duchess Park Condors, he was the provincial high school junior champion in the 400-metre distance. His gold-medal time in the race was 50.50 seconds.
