Bronze medal winner at the European Championships
A member of Athlé Chartres Lucé ASPTT Mainvilliers (Eure-et-Loire) since age 11, Rose Loga has enjoyed a meteoric rise as a hammer thrower, winning silver medals at the U20 European and World Championships.
Setting a personal best of 72.68 m on 10 June, 2024 at the European Athletics Championships in Rome, the athlete won the bronze medal. A performance that confirms Rose Loga is on a winning streak after her performance at the French long throw championships held in Salon-de-Provence this winter, where she landed the French Espoirs and Élites titles.
Winner at the 2024 French Championships
In Angers, the new SNCF athlete has won the French Championship with a 70.60 m hammer throw. Two weeks after winning at the European Athletic Championships, the 22-year old from Mainvilliers has broken new ground before the Paris 2024 Games.
Ready for Paris 2024
These national and continental performances have enabled the young athlete to qualify for the Paris 2024 Olympic Games. On 4 August 2024 at the Stade de France, she will be competing for a place in the Olympic hammer throw final, scheduled for 6 August.
A symbol of our support to top-level athletes
“The signing of Rose Loga's work integration agreement testifies to our support to high-level athletes and our desire to promote the values of sport and excellence in our company,” said Christophe Fanichet, Chairman and CEO of SNCF Voyageurs, outside a visit to Châteauroux station, one of the stations for the Paris 2024 Games, on Wednesday June 5.
