Athletics“It made me want to come back to Athletissima!”
Ditaji Kambundji, 20, discovered the Lausanne meeting a few days following his European bronze medal. And she seems to have appreciated the enthusiasm of the Pontaise public.
Ditaji Kambundji appreciated the atmosphere of Athletissima, which she discovered for the first time at 20 years old.

Barely recovered from his European bronze medal in Munich, Ditaji Kambundji finished 8th and last in the 100m at Athleticissima. “It was mostly time that mattered tonight (Friday) with such a plateau”, dropped the Bernese at the end of the race, who ran in 12”83 once morest 12”74 for the Europeans.
“I may have lacked a little energy in the final”
The Swiss has notably measured herself once morest the Puerto Rican Olympic champion Jasmine Camacho-Quinn. “It’s great to face such champions that I meet more and more often in competition,” said the 20-year-old athlete. It is beneficial for me, I feel that I am improving!”
Lack of freshness at the end
But on Friday, the weight of his bronze medal still weighed a little. “I was good, I was even surprised to have such cool legs during the warm-up, smiled Mujinga’s younger sister. But it’s true that it’s been a lot of racing since my European medal, I didn’t get much sleep on Sunday. Then I had many appointments. I may have lacked a little energy on the end. But I am very satisfied with my departure!”
The Swiss revelation of this end of the season took advantage of the deserved crowd offered by the Swiss public for his first participation in Athletissima. “There were a lot of emotions, I had a lot of fun running here in Lausanne, testified the European champion in the 100m hurdles. I can’t know if people would have supported me so much without my medal, but in any case it makes you want to relive it!
