Motivation Point, Sportswomen

Joanna Zakrzewski: Winner of Silver medal in IAU 100km World Championships 2011 Shares Her Journey

March 17, 2017 By Namita Nayyar (WF Team)

Ms. Namita Nayyar:

Advice and motivational words to the inspiring and budding ultramarathon girls who all are your fans, they shall like to know from you, what they should do for their climb to ladder of success in field of ultramarathon ?

Ms. Joanna Zakrzewski:

I think that anyone can complete an ultramarathon if they set their mind to it, but have respect for the distance and so prepare your body and mind. Make sure you’re doing it because you want to, not because you feel that you ought to, and then you’ll enjoy the preparation in itself and the actual event will just be the icing on the cake. (And enjoy all the food and drink you can have on the way!!!)

Ms. Namita Nayyar:

How did you feel before and after your memorable Silver win at International Association of Ultrarunners 100 km World Championships 2011 at Winschoten, Netherlands?

Ms. Joanna Zakrzewski:

I was selected as a “wildcard” to compete for GB at Winschoten, so I felt rather unworthy of being allowed to compete against/run with such great runners. I had never run the distance before the race, but I was confident that I would finish it, as long as I didn’t start too fast, or develop an injury. There were 4 of us GB ladies, and so my dream goal before the race was to finish as 3rd counter and so help the team to a good result. I never dreamed I would finish 2nd lady and first GB runner -and so even afterwards, I still doubted myself and worried that it was a fluke result. I was very nervous of ever running another 100K race incase I proved this to be the case – hence I am so relieved that it went well again in Doha!

Ms. Namita Nayyar:

You have been associated Marie Curie Cancer Care and with a number of charities which are all dear to your heart, tell us how you have been able to achieve and quench your thirst of giving back to the society through this endeavor of your?

Ms. Joanna Zakrzewski:

I have raised money for charities when I have first set myself a challenge that I wasn’t sure I could do – and kept it close to my own heart. I did my first half marathon for the Anthony Nolan Trust in memory of my grandfather, then my first marathon raising money for care homes in Poland in memory of my grandmother. When I did my first ultramarathon – the multi day Atacama Crossing, I chose Marie Curie as it was the only charity that guaranteed to keep all the money that raised within the region it was raised in. Other charities said they would take funds raised back to their head office and allocate it themselves – I wanted something that would benefit the people (and my patients) in the local area, so that I could give something back to those who support me.
