Erica Bougard — Track and Field
Out heptathlete Erica Bougard will compete in seven events for Team USA: 100-meter hurdles, high jump, shot put, 200-meter run, long jump, javelin, and 800-meter run. Bougard, who is a proud member of the LGBTQ+ community, is also one of the stars of Nike’s “Be True” Campaign. “I’m going to be myself no matter what and let people know,” she told Nike. “I let the track community know that this is me, this is who I am. This is who I’ve always been.”
