Career

edit

Specializing in the 3000 metres since 2016, Daguinos contested that discipline at the 2017 French U20 Championships, where he finished 3rd.[3] He won his first national title in the U20 race at the 2018 French Cross Country Championships.[4]

A successful title defense at the 2019 French Cross Country Championships qualified him for the 2019 World Cross Country Championships, where he competed in the U20 race and finished 54th, contributing to the French team's 10th-place showing.[5] In his first international track competition at the 2019 European Athletics U20 Championships, Daguinos finished in 21st place in the 5000 m.[6] Daguinos' 86th-place performance at the 2019 European Cross Country Championships U20 race helped the French team place 5th and end his season.[7]

After racing mainly domestically in 2020 and 2021 due to the COVID-19 pandemic, Daguinos improved his 5000 metres personal best from 13:45 to 13:26 at the 2022 IFAM Oordegem meeting, and in September he won the 2022 Mediterranean Athletics U23 Championships in that event.[8][9] He won his first continental medal at the 2022 European Cross Country Championships, finishing 4th overall in the U23 race behind countryman Valentin Bresc to lead his team to the silver medal.[10][11]

At the 2023 European 10,000m Cup, Daguinos placed 16th in his international debut at that distance. But it was Daguinos' earlier 5000 m personal best of 13:15.26 at the IFAM Oordegem meeting that earned him qualification to the inaugural 2023 World Athletics Road Running Championships, where he finished 6th in the 5K run.[8][12][13]

Personal life

edit

Daguinos is from Bordeaux where he trains with the US Talence Athlétisme club, occasionally also training in Font-Romeu. In 2023, he completed the third year of his degree in economics and accounting, though he put graduate school on pause to pursue qualification for the 2024 Summer Olympics.[14]

Daguinos has also participated in some trail running races, typically running between 100 and 110 kilometres per week in training.[2]
