Lucia Stafford a fait ses d\u00e9buts \u00e0 l’\u00e9chelle internationale \u00e0 l’occasion des Championnats du monde d’athl\u00e9tisme U20 de 2016 apr\u00e8s avoir remport\u00e9 le titre national junior au 1500 m. L’ann\u00e9e suivante, elle a remport\u00e9 l’or au 1500 m des Championnats panam\u00e9ricains juniors. Au mois de mai 2021, Stafford a r\u00e9alis\u00e9 un record personnel de 4:05,30 au 1500 m. Elle a ensuite d\u00e9croch\u00e9 l’argent aux Essais olympiques canadiens et s’est qualifi\u00e9e pour les Jeux de Tokyo 2020 dans la m\u00eame \u00e9preuve que sa s\u0153ur a\u00een\u00e9e Gabriela DeBues-Stafford. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u00c0 ses d\u00e9buts olympiques, la plus jeune des soeurs Stafford a r\u00e9ussi un record personnel en 4:03,52 aux qualifications lui permettant d’atteindre les demi-finales du 1500 m. Elle abaiss\u00e9 \u00e0 nouveau sa meilleure marque \u00e0 4:02,12 mais a manqu\u00e9 de peu la chance de rejoindre sa soeur en finale.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Stafford a \u00e9volu\u00e9 avec l’Universit\u00e9 de Toronto. En 2017, elle a remport\u00e9 trois titres U SPORTS (1000 m, relais 4×400 m et 4×800 m) et termin\u00e9 deuxi\u00e8me derri\u00e8re sa s\u0153ur au 1500 m. Stafford a \u00e9t\u00e9 nomm\u00e9e Athl\u00e8te f\u00e9minine par excellence de la rencontre aux Championnats U SPORTS. En 2018, elle a d\u00e9croch\u00e9 trois titres des SUO (1000 m, 1500 m et relais 4×800 m), mais a fini deuxi\u00e8me dans les \u00e9preuves du 1000 m et du 1500 m aux championnats nationaux. Stafford a \u00e9t\u00e9 d\u00e9clar\u00e9e laur\u00e9ate du Troph\u00e9e Dr Wendy Jerome en tant qu’Athl\u00e8te f\u00e9minine la plus utile des SUO. Une fracture de stress au pied gauche l’a forc\u00e9e \u00e0 rater deux mois de la saison d’athl\u00e9tisme au printemps 2019, mais elle a retrouv\u00e9 la sant\u00e9 et effectu\u00e9 un retour en 2020, si bien qu’elle a pu mettre la main sur deux m\u00e9dailles d’or aux Championnats U SPORTS, au 1000 m et au 1500 m.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

En tant que membre de l’\u00e9quipe de cross-country des Varsity Blues, Stafford a \u00e9t\u00e9 proclam\u00e9e Recrue f\u00e9minine de l’ann\u00e9e U SPORTS en 2016 et elle a \u00e9t\u00e9 s\u00e9lectionn\u00e9e trois fois au sein de la premi\u00e8re \u00e9quipe d’\u00e9toiles nationale universitaire canadienne. Elle a remport\u00e9 le titre national en 2019 et a \u00e9t\u00e9 nomm\u00e9e Athl\u00e8te f\u00e9minine de l’ann\u00e9e en cross-country au sein du r\u00e9seau U SPORTS. Pendant ses \u00e9tudes \u00e0 l\u2019Universit\u00e9 de Toronto, Stafford a repr\u00e9sent\u00e9 le Canada aux Universiades de la FISU 2019 \u00e0 Naples, o\u00f9 elle a termin\u00e9 cinqui\u00e8me au 1500 m et au relais 4×400 m.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Pendant qu’elle fr\u00e9quentait l’\u00e9cole secondaire, Stafford a re\u00e7u un diagnostic de maladie de Graves, un trouble qui peut faire en sorte qu’elle se sente \u00e9puis\u00e9e physiquement et qui peut se manifester sous forme aigu\u00eb \u00e0 tout moment. En novembre 2019, on a enlev\u00e9 sa thyro\u00efde, une solution qui s’av\u00e9rait plus fiable et permanente. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
