The woman can not stop celebrating: World Indoor Championship gold in March 2022, European Championship gold and silver in August 2022, on Friday she won the European Championship indoor title in Istanbul – Mujinga Kambundji (30) on the podium in the past 12 months . She won a title three times.
“It ‘feels’,” said the Bern resident on Saturday after sleeping overnight during her latest coup, which carried her gold over 60 yards. “It’s great that I can still get better. And of course it’s nice that I can travel to a big event and know I’m competing for medals.”
The performance in Istanbul is probably Kambundji’s most dominant performance on a big stage to date. With Ewa Swoboda and Daryll Neita she has two strong competitors, from whom she clearly distances herself, with 9 and 12 hundredths they are at a disadvantage. A small trip around the world over 60 m, it is a demonstration of strength by the fastest woman in Europe this year. She doesn’t even have to nod to the finish line to get the last millimeters.
How can this winning streak be explained, where does the dominance come from? Blick gives three reasons for the Kambundji coups:
1
The hunger
Even with Ü30, Kambundji still wants. “I still feel like I can do better,” she says. “It always goes faster. I want to explore my limits.” Where are they? That’s the big question. One thing is clear: the “Fastest Mujinga There Can Be” project is far from over. If you take the successful indoor season as a benchmark, Kambundji should be at least as fast in the summer as last year when she set new Swiss records in the 60, 100 and 200 meters.
2
Maturity
In Istanbul, all eyes are on Kambundji. “I’ve probably never had so many cameras with me,” she says. There is a reason for this: she arrives as the fastest European. Anything less than a title would be a bit of a disappointment. “I don’t see it that way,” she says. “Don’t underestimate the others.” Which she admits: “If I hadn’t done my job, I would have been very upset.” She seems to be perfecting her ability to block out the noise around her, march confidently through the preliminaries and perform in the finals. Well done.
3
The consistency
In the winter of 2020, Kambundji broke his foot during training. She has since been spared serious injuries. This means that each half-season can build on the previous one. “I look with my coaches at what works and where we can improve.” That she can do this without setbacks is worth gold. In Istanbul this is true in the true sense of the word.
