Clementine Geoffray

Away from racing, Clémentine’s path is far from typical. A Sciences Po Toulouse graduate, she brings a grounded, team-minded approach, and her years in kayaking gave her a strong culture of long effort and adaptability. She likes to learn, analyse, and then execute with focus. In recent seasons, she has also reshaped her day-to-day life to give more space to her athletic project, while staying true to what defines her: clear decision-making in races, toughness, and the drive to grow with a team around her.
