It is with my deepest regrets that I have to announce an early end to my season. I don‘t have much more to say at the moment except that I am surrounded by the most incredible team and a special thanks to everyone from @crossklinik Basel who made the last week a bit more bearable❤️‍🩹 @swissathleticsfederation

Have a good start into the new week! Happy Monday😇🙌🏼🍀 📸: @selina.vonjackowski #athlete #highjump #workout #newweek

Ready to attack the 2nd half of the season🤩🔥 First half of 2023 is already over and overall I can‘t complain how it went. My body still had to get used to the intensity of competing again, there were some good and some bad jumps, some easy days and some hard days… but always fun, lots of smiles with amazing people and so much joy🤗 still a lot to work on, especially the consistency in my jumps is not yet where it used to be, but we get closer day by day. So back to training before the next competitions start in a few weeks😍🐋💪🏼 📸: 1 & 8 @stricker.photo 2, 5 & 7 @athletix_ch 6 @diegomenzi @ubsathletics #athlete #highjump #highjumper #competing #diamondleague #adidas

Not the way I wanted it to go (1.84m and 7th) but more than proud to be back in the national dress and super proud of the team, we are staying in Division one😍🇨🇭❤️🤍 Now rest as much as possible, Thursday it is @athletissima time🤩💎 @swissathleticsfederation #athlete #highjump #athletics #europeanteamchampionships

Favorite office😍 #highjump #athlete #athletics #training

First block of competitions done and overall I am more than happy with the results🥰 Learning more and more with every jump and the feeling & form is slowly coming back. So progress goes into the right direction with the usual ups and downs and I am looking forward to see what’scoming.😊🐋 Now taking some time to process all of it, focus on uni exams🤓 and then soon back in the red and white again for European Team Championships…🙊😁🇨🇭 #athlete #highjump #competitions #athletics 📸: @athletix_ch @michistricker

Don‘t get bitter - get better 🦘 #jumps #training #athletics #highjump #6monthpostop

I mostly post pictures and videos when something good happened or I did a big step forward in my rehab. Well realistically, some weeks or days are the opposite and you just feel like sh*t. Pain is coming back, you have to stop training or do less and you are just not motivated to do anything at all. Well this is such a week and as annoying as it is, it is part of the process too.🙃🫠 #athlete #highjump #adidas #comeback

Pilates gives you sore muscles in places you didn’t even know you had muscles🫠🤸🏽‍♀️ Thank you @spirit_studio_basel & @brunner_michael for working with me and getting my back ready for highjump again🤗 #pilates #athlete #highjump

A lot can happen in 4 months🤩😊 Plyo jumps✅ #highjump #athlete #comeback #plyometrics #jumps

4 month post-op MRI✅ I honestly was scared to do a new years post about my goals for 2023 when I knew my MRI was coming up and I had no Idea what the images will show… Last time I had a good feeling as well and then it all turned out to be very different than we thought. Well, guess what: MRI is good, the back is healing as it should and my training intensity is getting higher week by week😍 Can’t really describe how relieved I am and so even though I am not 100% back yet, I am not that scared anymore to set my goals for 2023👀🐋🤗 #athlete #highjump #surgery #comeback

My heros❣️ … and the ugliest christmas tree on the planet🫠🎄 #tb #myheros #family

Going into christmas with very tired legs, sore muscles buuuut soo happy🤩 (well after a few minutes rest…🫠) The progress during the last weeks was amazing and I am just happy to do all that with really great people around me!😇 Merry Christmas everyone!

„When making plans, think big. When making progress, think small.“ First physio session two weeks after surgery done and I am happy with the little steps I am making day by day.😊 From making my own bed again, being able to tie my shoes to the first core exercises and bike session, every step is a little success💪🏼😁🏋🏻‍♀️ #athlete #comeback #surgery #highjump

Kind of miss it…🐝 #countingthedays #highjump #athlete #athletics 📸: Andek Andreas

I haven’t posted much about my training or highjump lately, so here are some news…🙋🏽‍♀️ (no worries, I am not joining @sm_aesch and switching to volleyball… yet) A little over a year ago I cancelled the rest of my season 2021 to be healthy and ready for season 2022. The return didn’t work out as planned, so we tried everything to get back as strong as possible for the indoor season 2023. Well, guess what: shit happens 💩😞 Sometimes you can do everything in your power and it still isn’t enough. Unfortunately, I have to get a second back surgery because of a recurrent disc herniation, which delays my comeback a little.❤️‍🩹 To be honest, the amount of setbacks this year since Tokyo is sometimes hard to handle, but somehow I am sure we will get stronger out of it. We are still confident that I’ll be back on track. I know what I want and I am definitely not done chasing my dreams; sometimes the road is just a little bit bumpier than expected. Loving what you do is really the key to staying motivated and to keep on going during these times. And I wouldn‘t know how to handle all of this without the amazing support from my family, my friends and my entire team. They make it so much easier and I couldn’t be more grateful for all of them.🤍 Surgery will be this Tuesday and then I will just work my ass off (after laying on the couch again for some weeks) to be back whenever my body and mind allow me to be. The #roadtocomeback continues. Let‘s try to enjoy each step along the way and keep being patient.😊 Thank you all for the ongoing support, I appreciate every message! 😘 Cheers! #athlete #surgery #comback #injury #highjump 📸: @athletix_ch @ulfschiller @swissathleticsfederation

Last but not least, Vancouver & Vancouver Island! How can you not love a city which combines beaches, mountains and good food?😍 Thank you Canada, it was a blast.

Thank you @schweizersporthilfe for your ongoing support, you are making our lives as athletes a lot easier.🙌🏼😊 #thankyou #danke #merci #grazie #sporthilfe @athletix_ch @ulfschiller

Never change a winning team🙌🏼 A small coach appreciation post because they don’t happen often enough. Thank you for the last 12 years of working with me, for becoming more than just a coach and for growing together (at least mentally😉). Thanks for knowing when to kick my ass and when to leave me alone, for making the trainings I hate most at least a bit fun and for travelling the world with me. Together through the good is easy, more importantly is working together through the bad and coming back stronger.🤞🏼💪🏼😊 #thankyou #team

My medical time-out seems to take a little bit longer than expected. Need some more time to figure things out, but I’ll be back sooner or later🤞🏼🐋 📸: @athletix_ch #seeyoulateralligator @swissathleticsfederation

7 month since my last jump (my competition in Tokyo) and 4 month since surgery - and today this happened☺️ far from good, far from high, but a big step in the right direction!😇 me is a happy kiddo😁

Hi Energy👋⚡️🤩 Starting the day strong in my favourite office with the new Ultraboost 22 and perfect weather😍 #ultraboost #hienergie #UB22 #createdwithadidas @adidas_de @adidasrunning

Buildling up again🏋🏻‍♀️💪🏼 Little insight to part of my weight routine at the moment. Eccentric work = sore muscles are guaranteed🙃😬 #athlete #highjump #workout #weights #comeback

So greatful for you!💜♥️💜 #daysoff #girlsweekend #switzerland #friends #goodtimes

I think feeling stronger day by day is one of the best things after an injury, so I am just sitting here, smiling and wondering what my mind & body will be able to achieve this year😌 During these trainings, #supportiseverything so I am really excited to present you the new Adidas Bra Revolution. \\\ Doesn‘t matter what kind of training, some easy stretching or high intensity jumps, your boobies are perfectly supported. 😏💪🏼😊 Check it out on adidas.com/nturl_bras @adidaswomen @adidas_de #createdwithadidas #supportiseverything

How it used to look vs. how it looks now🙃😄 but very happy with the progress of the last weeks, first „highjump“ trainings done☺️ #comback #surgery #highjump #athlete #athletics 📸: @hanneschurchyard

🦒🦒🦒 @uta_gruetter @_lydia.michel_

Nothing easier than pull-Ups😉 No, unfortunately as you can see I have to wear a foot splint due to torn ligaments in my right foot. I managed to twist my ankle in my first jump training after surgery. A little extra bump in the road during my comeback but fortunately no crutches and there is still a lot of training possible, just running and jumping have to wait a little bit longer🤷🏽‍♀️ Time to emphasize one more time how thankful I am for the support by @crossklinik . The super quick and right treatment showed me once again how important the right medical care is and I am still confident it will be a good summer!😊🤷🏽‍♀️ Easy would be boring, right?😉

Little summary of my last 8 weeks from my first physio session to my first time running and jumping again.😊📈🐋 #comeback #injury #highjump #athlete #onmyway #rehab

One of my favourite and definitely the most emotional moment from this year, first national record and direct olympic qualifier! Ready for all that 2022 has to offer😊💪🏼Happy new year!🥳 📸: @ulfschiller @athletix_ch #highjump #olympicqualifier #athlete

Third Advent Sunday🕯🎄 - Time to say thank you to all my sponsors and supporters. YOU are making these performances possible!🙌🏼💜👏🏻 📸: @athletix_ch #highjump #athlete #sport #thankyou #comeback #athletics

Second Sunday of Advent🕯- Already 4 month ago since I lived my biggest dream and I can‘t wait to be back working for more moments like this! #tokyo2021 #olympics #tb 📸: @athletix_ch

My face at the moment when wondering if someone can actually die from boredom🧐 One week since surgery and officially became one with my couch.🛋💆🏽‍♀️ But I had my first physio session today and I was allowed to use my core muscles a little bit, wuhuu🥳 #recovery #bored #stepbystep #highjumper #surgery #onmywayback

Feels so good to be back home and recovering in my own bed and eating my own food! Perfect Moment to announce my new partnership with @iseyskyrswitzerland ! Low in fat and with a lot of protein, perfect as a snack or breakfast. Exactley what I need to stay as good in shape as possible when doing nothing, even though it is kind of hard when I am not allowed to lift more than 5kg and walk longer than 15 minutes. But well… I try my best😋 Thanks to all the people who wished me happy birthday and a speedy recovery, I really did feel all your support and it means so much! 💜 #iseyskyr #skyr #iceland #healthyfood #healthy #recovery #snack #skyrswitzerland #ad @iseyskyrswitzerland

Again not the news I like but well, that’s life…🙃 After long consideration, a lot of discussions with several doctors and no improvement after 3 month of conservative treatment, we decided to operate on my back and remove the part of the disc which is pressing on my nerve for a long time now. Really not the place where I want to be in November (laying here instead of pushing through wintertraining), but for the first time since a long time I don’t have any pain in my back, leg and foot which is a big relieve. My surgery went well, I will be out of hospital and hopefully back in training soon. A big thanks to the whole team who worked with me during the last weeks, it wasn’t easy and every effort is really much appreciated! ❤ It will be a long and not easy road back, but I’ll do anything in my power to give a comeback like I did last time after my back injury. Today is day 1 of my #roadto2.00m and I can‘t tell you how ready I am!💪🏼🙌🏼🥳 #athlete #highjump #injury #surgery #comebackstronger
