Célia Chausseray, a golden girl

After two bronze medals in 2020 and 2021, she won the title in the 100m hurdles. At the end of an incredible race since the young girls were recalled three times. Twice for false start. The 4e order was correct, after the elimination of one of the favorites Laureen Maxwell.

I want to lower my chrono. I don’t know why, it was complicated in Albi.

She tells : “I didn’t do too badly, I tried to stay focused and I thought it was the same for everyone. It was to the one who was the least going to lose focus.. She knew how to manage the elimination of Maxwell, who was in the corridor next door: “She was moving, it made me move and I was afraid that I had also come out. Inevitably, after four times, you want to go for a run”.

In the end, there were no bad surprises, even if we could have regretted the first false start, because Célia Chausseray had jumped out of the blocks: “What doesn’t happen to me often”smiled the screamer.

She is hungry for records

And Angoumoisine took the 2e place behind the Belgian Yanla Ndjip-Nyemeck. Securing the gold medal. The time is certainly a little more modest, in 13”55 or 18 hundredths of his record, but the essential is there, especially after a start to the season disturbed by physical glitches. “ I wasn’t too confident. But the fact that I’m doing better than the others today, I’m happy. Because that’s also a championship. We have to do better than the others”.

Casually, the one who trains in Talence is in the process of forging a sacred record at the national level. Proof of regularity in major meetings. Now Angoumoisine is hungry for more races and personal bests. She broke her record by one hundredth this season (13”37). “I don’t know where I’m going to run yet, I have to discuss it with my trainer”.

Because despite the title, there is this hint of regret at not having the timer at the end: “I want to lower my time. I don’t know why, it was complicated in Albi. However the conditions were good with heat and wind. The Belgian who wins is worth much more than her time. I also think I’m worth more than I did, but that’s also the case for the girls behind me. Even if it’s a championship and the time remains secondary. At least I’m reassured to see that it wasn’t just me.”
In the meantime, she leaves Albi with a fine gold medal worth all the times in the world.

Charentais at the gates of the finals

In the same series as Célia Chausseray, Maud Branlard (G2A), did not manage to extricate herself from the series, 7th in 14”28. Téa Siehou (Cognac AC) will not have much to regret in the 100m on Saturday. She approached 5 hundredths of her personal best in the 100m to achieve 11”92 in her semi-final. She is 5th. The 200 m was more complicated for the Cognaçaise, last in her series in 25”70. Gwendoline Hardouin (G2A) fails at the gates of a finalist place in the hammer and three additional tries with her 10th place (46.98). Just like Marie Vendé (AJ Montmoreau) and Chloé Trillaud (G2A) on the disc, respectively 9th and 10th (36.84 m and 36.53 m).
