Nicolas Navarro

Long before he became an Olympian at the Tokyo 2020 Games and leading French marathon runner, Nicolas Navarro was a dedicated road cyclist. But after suffering a serious injury at the age of 18, Nicolas took up running instead – and so a long-distance track star was born. Now a world-class contender for France, he has an impressive PB of 2:05:53. Certainly one to watch out for.
