Uppsala. Michaela Meijer felt like she was on her way to the World Cup.
By that time, she had already been injured while jumping on the SM team in Uppsala.
Yes, there is bad timing for everything now. Michaela says, I felt like I was on the g, but it’s not helping now.
Now Michaela did some of it together, set the bar at 1.60, hook it up to the jump pit and got the job done.
All to secure a point for his club Örgryte.
– Yes, the sprain was no worse than what I could handle and deal with anyway. She says it was still possible to move on.
But have you ever jumped?
– no I do not think so. I remember my first competition when I was thirteen years old. Then it jumped 1.80 and I don’t think it has gone down since then.
Very unlucky quest
Michaela has been very unlucky this past year.
On her way home from Karlstad’s doctor of the year last summer, she had a serious car accident in which her coach Gustav Holtgren and Yannick Tregaro ended up in the hospital.
Then she was in the middle of preparations for the World Cup.
Once back, she tested positive and was confined to a hotel room in Birmingham for fourteen days.
– This was exactly the time I should have been in pre-camp before the Olympics in Tokyo.
– So it was a mess last year, and the start of that was pretty bad too.
– Now I finally sensed that the model was on its way – and that’s what happens.
Michaela had to follow the competitions with a large ice bladder around her foot and then had to be pushed on a wagon from the sports field.
Michaela was aiming for the World Cup Finals for the fourth time in a row.
She competed in 2015, 2017, 2019 as well as the Olympic Games in Tokyo last summer.
Gunnarsson won
The good news is that we have two championships to aim for with both the World Championships in Eugene and the European Championships in Munich this summer.
But with the World Cup kicking off in less than a month, time is running out.
Or maybe you already did.
– I didn’t feel bad. I’ve had worse sprains, so I hope to have another good competition. Especially this year when the ladies staff is not keeping the same level as before. I felt like I had the chance. But now we’ll see what happens.
Lisa Gunnarson won the pole vault with a modest 4.28 average.
But it looks like she’ll be the only Swedish lever in a toilet this time around.
It topped 4.65 earlier this year, which is enough for the World Cup qualifiers.
