New Westminster’s Jeff Schiebler paced a lot of races during his middle- and long-distance running career.
Now the two-time Olympian is joining a distinguished group as the University of B.C. Sports Hall of Fame inducts a trio of athletes for 2016.
Schiebler, a New Westminster native, posted stellar track and cross country running marks, including Canadian records in the 3,000-, 5,000- and 10,000-metres events. A five-time national champion in the 5,000m event, Schiebler would go on to represent Canada at the 1996 and 2000 Olympics.
Upon completing his UBC studies, Schiebler went on to train and compete professionally in Japan.
