Erica Bougard On Being Your Authentic Self While Running

Out Of The Blocks

September 13, 2022

Jasmine Todd and Katelyn Hutchison talk with Erica Bougard, a five-time U.S. champion who finished 4th at the 2019 World Championships and competed at the Tokyo Olympics. Bougard caught global attention at the 2019 World Championships in Doha for wearing high jump shoes with the rainbow flag while competing in Qatar, where homosexuality is illegal. She is openly bisexual.

For the next few episodes, CITIUS MAG and the Out of The Blocks Podcast partnered with Nike to celebrate the many reasons runners take to the streets. For the everyday and common runner, Nike is committed to motivating, standing by, listening to, and helping them from the starting line to the finish line and every mile in between. https://www.nike.com/running | Download the Nike Run Club app here.
