She had tried many sports before focusing on running. Her coach first suggested she try the marathon distance in 2020. "I told him, well, come up with something else." She was eventually convinced by her good results in half-marathon races. (behejsrdcem.cz, 17 Jun 2021; idnes.cz, 29 Jun 2021)

General Interest

General
MARATHON DEBUT
She secured the entry standard for the 2020 Olympic Games in Tokyo in May 2021 in her marathon debut in a race in Austria. "My coach prepared me for everything, led me to the start and called me on the way, when to slow down, when to drink and what to do. I waited all the time for the crisis to come, because everyone says that the 30th or 35th kilometre is a horror. And nothing like that happened." (irozhlas.cz, 23 May 2021; idnes.cz, 29 Jun 2021)

AMATUER
She says she is unable to support herself through running. "My parents still feed me, I'm an amateur hobby runner. I had a problem getting money for shoes this [2021] season. [My achievements] are motivating, but you can't buy a toothbrush or a snack with them. But I'm definitely looking forward to the Olympics, even though I've never clung to it, it's such a surprise for me. And I will need new shoes for the race in Japan." (idnes.cz, 29 Jun 2021)
