Biography
[edit]Tarkowski is from Biała Podlaska where he competes representing the KS AZS-AWF club, coached by Tadeusz Makaruk.[3]
Tarkowski's first senior national medal came at the 2018 Polish Athletics Championships in Lublin, where he won the silver on his last attempt. Rather than clapping as is custom for long jumpers, he asked the crowd to remain silent for his 6th and final jump, which he performed in a personal best of 7.80 metres.[4]
He was also the winner of the 2018 Polish U20 Championships held in Włocławek,[3] and the 2018 Indoor Polish U20 Championships held in Toruń.[2] He qualified for and participated in the 2018 World Athletics U20 Championships, and twice at the European U23 Championships in 2019 and 2021. At the 66th Polish Indoor Athletics Championships, he set a championship record with a result of 8.01 m to win the competition.[5]
