Richard Adu-Bobie (January 12, 1985) is a Canadian sprinter. He was on Canada's 4x100 m relay team at the 2004 Summer Olympics.

Born in Manchester, New Hampshire to Canadian parents, Adu-Bobie moved to Canada at a young age and received his Canadian citizenship just two days prior to the Olympic trials. He lives in Ottawa where he attends the University of Ottawa where he studies business but is planning to move to the University of Texas at Austin. He holds the Canadian junior record in the 100 meter dash. As the youngest member of the Canadian track team he was originally expected to be an alternate for the relay team, but is now some think he might be one of the four runners. Whether or not Adu-Bobie runs in Athens he is still considered one of the most promising young sprinters in Canada who is still far from his peak years.Template:Athleticsbio-stub Template:Ottawa-stub Template:Canada-athlete-stub
