In high jump the opponents are the tape measure and yourself. I love sports like that, where you have to challenge yourself directly. It makes it easier to grow, both physically training wise and mentally. Because you don't have the excuse that you lost because the opponents were simply too good. When you don't perform, you have to look yourself straight in the eyes in the mirror and realize that you are the only thing holding yourself back. Blanka Vlašić has looked in the mirror and knows exactly who is looking back. And her dedication to her training and mental maturity shows: she is not the Queen of High Jump for nothing!
