Poland’s Aleksandra Miroslaw made history at the Paris Olympics by breaking her own world record twice in the women’s speed event of sport climbing. In a remarkable display of skill and determination, Miroslaw set a new record with a time of 6.21 seconds in her first qualification run, surpassing her previous best time set at the European qualifier in Rome in 2023. Not content with that achievement, she went on to outdo herself in her second run, clocking an even faster time of 6.06 seconds.
While Miroslaw had set an Olympic record during the 2020 Tokyo Games, she narrowly missed out on a medal, finishing in fourth place. However, her stellar performance in Paris solidified her reputation as a force to be reckoned with in the sport climbing world.
Her impressive track record includes winning the 2022 European Championships in Munich, claiming a silver medal at the 2023 European Games, and securing a bronze medal at the 2023 World Championships. These achievements underscore Miroslaw’s exceptional talent and consistency at the highest levels of competition.
