Liam Fisher’s body was found days after he went missing while on an organized run last weekend. His parents, who live in Pemberton, say foul play is not suspected but the cause of death is not yet known.
“He’s an endurance athlete and trained very hard so I don’t know what’s happened,” said Liam’s grieving father, Hugh Fisher, who is a physician.
“We’d love to have that explanation, but at the end of the day, asking all those questions and even getting answers doesn’t change what happened,” he said.
It’s hoped an autopsy may provide more information.
“It sounds to me like possibly some kind of medical emergency happened during the race,” Fisher said.
Liam Fisher, who was 34 and previously owned a gym in North Vancouver, was a medical student at St. George’s University in Grenada.
