Although she opened the 60-kilometer race with as much as 3,200 meters of elevation gain, Lejla had an awkward fall at the 20th kilometer, which largely dictated the further course of the competition.
By the time of the fall, BH. the competitor was in the leading group and drove a strong pace.
Despite falling and falling out of the racing rhythm, Lejla showed good mental and physical endurance, continued the race, carried it to the very end and chased the podium result.
However, the fall and high energy consumption took their toll, and she crossed the finish line in eighth place.
The fall passed without injury, and Lejla demonstrated that she can compete with the fastest drivers in the world.
Bh. the competitor continues with the planned high-altitude preparations in Livigno, and the entire training process is now maximally directed towards the first major goal of the season, i.e. the European Championship in Bilbao, Spain, which is scheduled for July 12, her team reported.
