Kinga Królik (born 26 September 1999) is a Polish steeplechase runner. She won the silver medal in the steeplechase at the 2021 European U23 Championships.
Biography
Krolik is from Pabianice, Poland, where she competes representing the UKS Azymut Pabianice club.[2][3]
Królik saw her first international success at the 2021 European Athletics U23 Championships, taking the silver medal in the steeplechase behind Flavie Renouard.[2] She was in 2nd place at the halfway point as France led early on, but with 800 metres to go three French women took to the lead pack alongside Królik. On the final lap, Królik took the lead running at 19.1 kilometres per hour (11.9 mph) soon before Renouard surged ahead, leaving Królik to settle for silver.[2] Her medal was said to be the greatest athletics success by a woman from Pabianice since Jadwiga Wajs.[2]
By virtue of winning the 2022 Polish Athletics Championships, Królik won her first global championship berth at the 2022 World Athletics Championships steeplechase. She ran 9:44.74 in her heat, placing 36th overall and not qualifying for the finals.[4]
Królik ran her personal best of 9:31.84 to finish runner-up at the 2023 Polish Athletics Championships.[5]
