The best performance was achieved by the Swede Thobias Montler, with 8.18 meters. Having no previous experience, to be honest, I got a little lost when I entered the track.

First of all, I want to thank the athletes and coaches for the way they trained during this period because it was not easy. And they already gave us a pleasant surprise because we have a delegation of 15 athletes. This is a very good thing, we also have athletes who have set personal records this winter, which, again, is a very good thing. We also have athletes who are in the top five in Europe, like Andrea Miklos (400 m) and Gabriel Bitan (in length), and it is clear that we are going there to fight for medals. There are other athletes too, who will fight for medals, like Florentina Iusco, Alina Rotaru, Claudia Bo
