Alice Decaux

Alice Decaux, born on 10 April 1985 in Abidjan, is a French athlete specializing in the 60-meter and 100-meter hurdles. Her career includes several notable performances and achievements.

In 2010, she was eliminated in the 60-meter hurdles semifinals at the Doha World Championships, finishing eighth with a time of 8.23 seconds. The following year, she improved her performance significantly, running a personal best of 7.97 seconds in the final of the French Indoor Championships, making her a strong contender for the podium at the 2011 European Indoor Championships in Paris.

However, during the 2011 European Team Championships, she failed to advance from the semifinals of the 60-meter hurdles after falling on the fifth hurdle. In 2013, she further improved her personal best in the 100-meter hurdles, running 12.70 seconds at the French Championships. She was also a national champion in both the 60-meter and 100-meter hurdles, with notable wins in 2010, 2011, and 2012.

Her personal best times include 7.97 seconds for the 60-meter hurdles (indoors) and 12.70 seconds for the 100-meter hurdles (outdoors). She also finished third in several national championships, including multiple podium finishes in both events.

In 2013, she tested positive for amphetamines during a competition at the European Team Championships and was suspended by the IAAF for six months. This suspension excluded her from representing France at the Moscow World Athletics Games later that year.
