Paris 2024 triathlon gold medallist Cassandre Beaugrand will make her Herculis debut on the track on 10 July, competing in the 3,000 metres.
Cassandre Beaugrand, who took gold in the women's triathlon at the Paris 2024 Olympic Games, is stepping onto the track at Stade Louis II for her first appearance at the Meeting Herculis on 10 July. The French athlete will contest the 3,000 metres, marking a notable crossover from triathlon to pure athletics at one of the Diamond League circuit's most established fixtures.
Herculis has a long record of attracting headline names to the Principality each summer, and Beaugrand's entry adds an unusual dimension to this year's programme. For residents and visitors planning to attend, it is worth booking early - the meeting consistently draws near-capacity crowds to the Fontvieille stadium.
