EARLY DAYS
She had a series of health problems earlier in her career and quit athletics on two occasions. She got over her problems in the 2016 season and began finding some consistency. "When I returned to running for the second time, it never occurred to me that the time would come when they would start breaking records. I'm constantly improving and I'm a little afraid of what's next. I have no idea how far this can go. I try to run to the full, I give my best for every season and I always let myself be surprised where I move in terms of performance. " (atletika.cz, 01 Aug 2020; runholic.net, 13 Feb 2019)
