2021 Russian high jump champion Maria Kochanova said that since childhood she wanted to participate in the Olympic Games and set a world record.
“All my life, all my childhood, I dreamed of the Olympic Games and a world record. I even have a notebook where it says I will jump at 2.18.
Can you imagine how obsessed I was with this idea as a child? I thought: yes, it’s easy, I can do it when I grow up. Now I won’t say that there are real dreams or dreams. I started to look at everything more realistically. I try to get the most out of myself, but at the same time I don’t burden myself with what doesn’t depend on me. And only my result depends on me. That’s what I think about,” RT Kochanova quotes.
At the end of July, Kochanova won the first “New Height” tournament in Moscow with a score of 1.91 meters. She also beat Olympic champion Maria Lasitskene.
