Profile: Giles Sharpe

Biography

Since his television debut in 2000, Giles Sharpe has been a regular participant in the Ontario Strongman circuit.

Giles currently resides in Elginburg, Ontario and is employed as a Federal Correctional Officer. A father of two, his children are his inspiration. His philosophy is: "it's not about the gaining of titles, but to continue competing and going as far as the sport will take you; anything is possible with strength and determination." His goal is to one day be counted among the few strongmen to represent Canada at the World's Strongest Man.

Giles has not only been a competitor in Strongman over the past five years; he is also a promoter of the sport. He has been organizing and running competitions throughout Ontario since 2001. He feels it is important to provide others interested in Strongman the opportunity to compete.
