Plourde to Compete for Team Canada at World Championships
Former Utah track & field All-American Simone Plourde was recently named to the Canadian National Team that will compete at the World Championships in Budapest from August 19-27 at the National Athletics Centre. “It feels surreal to think I’m headed to Worlds for my first-ever national team representing Canada,” Plourde said after she found it. “It’s always been a dream of mine to wear the Canadian uniform but I didn’t expect for it to happen so fast. This will be great experience heading into Paris 2024.” Plourde will take the track for the first time on August 19 in the 1500 meters. “Everyone associated with our program is incredibly proud to have an alum representing us
at the World Athletics Championships for the first time (that I know of),” head coach Kyle Kepler said.
