Clare Furr is an American female bodybuilder who competed in the Ms. Olympia division during the 1980s. Her most notable achievement was placing fifth at the 1985 Ms. Olympia, one of the sport's most prestigious competitions. Furr's competitive tenure peaked in the mid-1980s, a formative era for professional female bodybuilding when the Ms. Olympia contest was establishing itself as the sport's premier championship. She appeared on the Ms. Olympia stage in consecutive years, competing in 1984 and 1985, with her performance improving between the two contests.
At the 1984 Ms. Olympia, Furr placed sixth, demonstrating her position among elite competitors of that season. The following year, she advanced one position to finish fifth at the 1985 Ms. Olympia, marking her career-best placement. These consecutive top-ten finishes at bodybuilding's marquee event underscore her standing as a serious contender during a period when the Ms. Olympia field was deepening in both quality and depth of competitors. While details of her training philosophy, competition history outside the Olympia, and career longevity remain limited in available records, Furr's presence at consecutive Ms. Olympia competitions places her among the women who helped legitimize professional female bodybuilding as a competitive sport in the 1980s.
