Natoya Goule (born 30 March 1991) is a Jamaican middle-distance runner.[2] She competed in the 800 metres event at the 2014 IAAF World Indoor Championships.

Running career[]

Youth[]

Goule established herself in athletics already by the age of 12, when she ran at the ISSA Athletic Championships in Jamaica.[3] Representing Manchester High School, she holds records in the Girls' Class 1 1500m as well as the Class 3 800m, and she has accumulated 15 individual gold medals at the Inter-Secondary Schools Boys and Girls Championships, and 12 individual at the CARIFTA Games.[4][3]

International[]

Goule first attended South Plains College and ran for their track team. At around the same time South Plains was already recruiting other Jamaican runners, such as Kemoy Campbell. Eventually, however, she would go on to study and run at Louisiana State University. After a few seasons at LSU she transferred to Clemson. In 2014, she was a member of Jamaica's women's 4x400 relay team which won the silver medal at the 2014 IAAF World Indoor Championships.[5][6]
