A multi sport athlete growing up in Suburban Philadelphia, Steve made his way to Cabrini College in Radnor Pennsylvania on a soccer scholarship where he earned many honors including Most Valuable Player recognition and a Distinguished Alumni award for his charitable work in the community. Post college, Brown played semi-professionally for a number of years in the Majors Division of the United Soccer League for the club Danubia.

Steve traded in his soccer shoes and turned his passions to the flexibility of multisport racing in 1987 and has never looked back.

Since 1987, Steve has racked up countless triathlons and multisport events of all distances including marathons and ironman triathlons and many top age group finishes.

In addition to his busy racing and training schedule, Steve is also very active using his involvement in multisport racing as a way of raising funds and awareness for significant causes.

Steve is the Multisports Editor for Liberty Sports Magazine and a contributor for Philly Health Watch. He has also been a featured writer for HealthFitnessBroadcast.com, Philly FIT Magazine, and TransitionTimes.com. His material has often been published in national and regional print and web based publications. Steve has also been a featured guest on several radio, TV and internet broadcast programs.

In his “spare time”, Steve works closely with top race management companies such as The Philadelphia Insurance Triathlon, Tim Kerr Charities, Piranha Sports and Columbia Triathlon Association in promoting and supporting their events while also serving on the USA Triathlon Mid Atlantic region’s Board of Directors.

In February of 2006, life threw Steve a curve ball when he was diagnosed with Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia. Wasting no time, he underwent four rounds of chemotherapy. He maintained his baseline fitness level, often running home from his treatments and quickly reached complete remission. By July of that same year, he was back to racing triathlons. By September of that year, just 7 months after his diagnosis, “RemissionMan” crossed the finish line of his 8th career iron distance triathlon. (2.4-mile swim, 112-mile bike, 26.2-mile run) His diagnosis drew him to the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society’s TEAM in TRAINING program where he signed on as an Assistant Triathlon Coach. In 2008 Steve was named TEAM in TRAINING’s “Volunteer of the Year” and in 2010 Steve was named “Man of the Year by The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society.

Brown has chronicled his journey through remission and across the finish line and in May, 2007 published the book “My New Race” to tell the story.

Brown has also written a collection of multisport short stories, articles, and interviews, entitled “The Inner Triathlete … Forever ablaze”. This book is dedicated to Jon “Blazeman” Blais and a portion of the proceeds benefit The Blazeman Foundation’s fight against Lou Gehrig’s disease.

In December of 2008, Brown released his third book; “50 FIT TIPS”. “TIPS” contains 50 fun fitness and motivational tips, reminders, and messages designed to help motivate people and get them moving in the right direction towards better health through fitness.

In November of 2010, Brown released “In Search of Center”, his fourth effort which again speaks to his many life, sport, and cancer experiences. Brown’s good friend Ethan Zohn wrote the foreword for this book.

Steve and his wife MG live in Delaware County Pennsylvania with their two daughters, where he also serves on the Board of Directors of the Community YMCA of Eastern Delaware County. In 2011 Delaware County Community College honored Steve with the Wong Moss Distinguished Alumni Award.

Steve often connects with other patients and their family members as a volunteer mentor with The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society’s First Connection program, as well as the Imerman Angels patient mentoring program.

In 2012, the HEADstrong Foundation honored Brown with the Nicholas E. Colleluori Award for demonstrating heroics and perseverance in the fight against blood cancer.
