Fabienne Schlumpf (born 17 November 1990) is a Swiss athlete specialising in the 3000 metres steeplechase, and later, marathon running.[2] She won the silver medal at the 2018 European Championships. In 2020, she competed in the women's half marathon at the 2020 World Athletics Half Marathon Championships held in Gdynia, Poland.[3]

Her personal best of 9:37.81 is the current national record.

She used the competition-free time during the Covid-19 pandemic to re-orient towards marathon running. In her first marathon race ever (Belp, April 3rd, 2021) she not only fulfilled the time cutoff to participate at the 2020 Olympics in Tokyo, but with 2:26:14 hours she improved the Swiss record for female marathon runners.[4]

Schlumpf ran her second marathon race at the Olympic Games in Tokyo and was placed 12th with 2:31:36 hours.[5]

In January 2022 she announced on her instagram that she has been diagnosed with myocarditis and was unsure what effect it would have on her training.[6] Schlumpf stated that she has never tested positive for COVID-19 and has received vaccinations for the virus.[7]
