Event Reports

Second 65.48
I don't really think about not getting the big Q. I am second so I am pretty sure I will be in the final, that's the only thing that matters to me. In the finals, I want to be as good as possible, would be very happy if I could win a medal. I can do better than 65 m but this were qualifications so the result doesn't really matter as long as you are in the top 12. I am happy with my result.
Winner 69.06 CR Q
My coach said that I am still in a good shape even after the World Championships. I don't have that good feeling but still I managed to throw secure throw which is also the new CR. After winning the world champion title I hope to win a European title too. Of course, my confident is really high right now so I hope I can throw even further in the final.
