Irena Szewinska 

What a legend! Probably the greatest female track athlete of all time. It is a real shame she passed away fairly young. She still had a lot to offer. RIP

One of the best sportswomen of all time - Irena Szewińska from Poland!

RIP Irena, we are still proud of you in Poland

Rest in peace. Greatest polish runner of all time. We’ll never forget.

RIP Irena :(. Only 72 years young.

Brakuje mi słów - więc napiszę tylko: Pani Ireno drugiej takiej biegaczki nie będzie. Z Panią odchodzi to co w sporcie jest najpiękniejsze. Jest mi bardzo przykro.

I clearly remember as a then young man running for Southampton. The Polish team competing on the grass track at the sports centre. So it must have been prior to 76. Szewinska, Badenski and Malinowksi all ran plus a host of fine athletes. The event was organised by the incomparable Mike Smith.

She is so amazing...

kochana nasza Irenka….szkoda ze czas tak szybko uplywa i nie ma jej juz z nami...ale nigdy nie zapomne tej kobiety i jej medali!!

most importantly, she was a 'pure' champion. She did not turn into a man after the end of her career, such as DDR athletes

R I P beautiful lady. She was a legend

Absolutely beautiful amazing 🇵🇱🙏🏻😍👏🏻👏🏻😘 she was so good

Unbelievably brilliant athlete

A phenomenal athlete at multiple disciplines.

She was one of a kind sprinter.

Doskonale pamietam te lata Pani kariery Pani Irano.Mialem wtedy 11 lat,Cos wspanialego .Jaki sport byl wtedy czysty.Byla Pani duma Polski .

The first lady of the light athletics has gone 29.06.2018

What a LEGEND!!

Szewińska was unbelievably strong, talented and hardwoking. And clean.

W sporcie najpiekniejsze jest to, ze przychodza nastepcy godni Krolowej Lekkoatletyki i wspanialymi wynikami oddaja hold Wspanialej Irenie Szewinskiej.....

a hero to athletics....there will be a never be another Irena...God bless you xxxx

1:44 Amazing performance. Contemporary Polish female athletes still aren't able to beat this record.

such magnificent speed endurance. And probably clean since Poland's results of that era don't point to systematic doping that the East Germans and Russians and eastern bloc in general had in place

A big farewell to the white gazelle. R.I.P.

Sadly, Mrs. Szewińska has died today :( (June 29th, 2018)

R.I.P

Tak wyglądał prawdziwy sport. Pani Irena to królowa. Już takiej zawodniczki nie będzie. Teraz tylko doping itp.itd.

Najlepsza w Historii dzisiaj miała by 76lat jak by żyła dziękujemy za 🥇🥇🥇🥈🥈🥉🥉 olimpijskie medale Mistrzostw Europy i rekord świata

R.I.P. 29.06.2018

Shaunae Miller-Uibo reminds me of her; Tall but with the sprint cadence of a much shorter woman. Irena is a Legend!

,,,,,, Legend !!!!

Très belle femme, j'adore, respect !

Amazing sprinter!

彼女は最高のランナー。４００㍍５０秒を切った最初の女性で翌年春、日本の競技会にも出場。五輪も東京大会から５回出場。モスクワ五輪４００準決勝最下位で敗退したが、カメラはゴール前以外、彼女しか映していなかった程だ。２００７年世界選手権大阪大会で、役員として表彰式でメダル授与していたのをテレビで観て嬉しかった。ご冥福をお祈りします。

cały czas czekamy na następczynię !

Her pentathlon record has not been seriously targeted in over a decade.

Wspaniala kobieta.

RIP

Jackie Joyner-Kersee also won medals at four successive Olympic Games, 1984-1996.

Just as Flo`s records- and they were kind of related, weren`t they?

Łydki pani Ireny piękne wlukana które widać brawo mistrzynio

Saludos de Bucaramanga,

Суперзірка!

niech odpoczywa w pokoju

💝

it would be interesting to know what for doping she used

Yes she was, and in reality she wouldn't have won a medal in the heavily boycotted L.A. Games... had there been no boycott.
