In 2007 Duarte was included into the French national team and placed fifth at the world championships, beating her own French record by 2 seconds. She participated in the 3000 m steeplechase at the 2008 Summer Olympics and finished 7th in the heats.[1] On 10 July 2009, she bettered her French record running 9:25.62 at the Golden Gala meet in Rome.[2][3] Qualifying for the 2009 World Championships in Berlin, she finished initially 15th in the final. On 19 November 2015, the Spaniard Marta Dominguez, who initially won the championship at these Games, was disqualified for doping. Duarte was reclassified in 14th position[4][5]
In 2010, Duarte placed seventh at the European Championships in Barcelona. She did not run at the London 2012 Olympics due to an injury. Since 2013 she has been trained by David Heath, a former English international, in cross country.
