Шаблон:Infobox speed skater Florence Hurd (6 May 1913 – May 1988) was a Canadian speed skater. She lived in or near Copper Cliff, Ontario, Canada.[1]

She competed in all the three women's speed skating events at the 1932 Winter Olympics in Lake Placid, United States, which were held as demonstration sport.[2][3] She competed in the 500 metres event, 1000 metres event and 1500 metres event but was eliminated in the heats.[4][5][6]

In 1935, she was the North American Indoor Champion.[7]

Hurd stated on 8 January 1936 that she will not compete at the 1936 World Allround Speed Skating Championships for women in Oslo, Norway; the first official World Allround Speed Skating Championships for Women.[8]

After the Stanley Stadium in Copper Cliff was built, the region's first artificial ice surface, Hurd moved to the region together with her brother to train there.[1][7]

Personal life

She had a brother, Alex Hurd, who was also a speed skater.[1][7] Several family members living in Eastern Ontario, Ottawa, and Niagara Falls, are described in a 1948 local newspaper.[9]
