That same year, she also competed in the World Cross Country Championships. Her career is filled with national accolades, as she has won four gold, eight silver, and five bronze medals at the Polish Senior Championships. She has also showcased her talent at the European Cross Country Championships in both 2007 and 2008. Izabela’s consistency and determination have made her one of Poland’s top long-distance runners, and her experience will surely be an asset to the team.
Mateusz Kaczor is one of Poland’s fastest marathon runners, he has firmly established his name in the country’s marathon history.
