Arnstadt, 06.02.2010.

It wasn't the usual competition; the anxiety because of the health, the plot on the jumping field and the ecstasy with the new record. All of that was a great temptation for the double world champion, who started to warm up at 13.00 hours.

She had to keep the concentration for three hours before the final award; 206 cm.

The new Croatian indoor record and the third jump of all time.

She began with 185 cm, then jumped 190 and 193 in the first attempt, she passed 196, and succed in the first attempt over 198, and then she passed 2m. Meanwhile, Russian Shkolina jumped over 200 cm and set the challenge for Blanka: she had to jump over 202 cm for the victory.

"I didn't doubt my ability for a moment to jump over that height this evening, but it still happened that I was to close to the batten at the first approach, and I teared it down in the phase of reflection, another technical error led me before the crucial third attempt," said Blanka - after the competition.

At the first attempt at 206 cm, the batten 'cogitated' and fell, but at the next attempt it stayed on the stands. Joy, happiness and joy, pure, with no rest.

The attack on 209 and a new world record was the award for the audience, though there was not the "oil in the coils“ for that height.

Blanka will continue her way to Stockholm on the 10th of February, where she will have her next performance.
