This is Anita Wlodarczyk and she broke her own world record at womens hammer throw with 82.29m and was 6m ahead of the 2nd place winner. This is the 6th time she broke the world record and i thought that she deserves some recogniton on here.

She is also the first women in history to throw the hammer further than 80m :D Good job, Anita. :D

Heheh. It's kinda evil writing those words without accents because it'll be harder for non-polish speakers to find out what it means.

It's hard to criticize a sentence like that when I can put four had's in a sentence and it still makes sense....
