Kornelia Kubińska (born August 3, 1985 in Marklowice , Powiat Wodzisław Śląski, born Kornelia Marek) is a Polish cross-country skier .

At the age of 16, Kubińska first appeared in international competitions at the lower level in early 2002. A year later she took part in the Junior World Championships in Sollefteå , Sweden , where she was placed, however, clearly beaten in the rear half of the ranking. Until 2005, the Pole improved in FIS races and regularly reached the top ten. In March 2005, Kubinska was next to her teammate Sylwia Jaśkowiec the only athlete in her country who competed in the Junior World Championships. As 16th she was classified among the top 20 for the first time at a major international event. Together with Jaskowiec and Justyna Kowalczyk , she finally won bronze in the relay at the Universiade in Turin in January 2007 .

During Kubinska times as a junior, Kowalczyk was usually the only Polish woman who started in the World Cup - the most important competition series in cross-country skiing. It was not until 2007 that two other athletes, Kubinska and Sylwia Jaskowiec, joined the Polish national team. Both had recommended themselves with good performances in second-rate races and from the 2007/08 season had regular appearances in the World Cup. The Nodziskawerin made her debut in Düsseldorf , where she first finished 58th in the individual sprint and then - together with Jaskowiec - 22nd in the team sprint. In February 2008 she won World Cup points for the first time when she finished 25th in a freestyle individual race over 7.6 kilometers in the victory of Norwegian Astrid Jacobsen . At the end of the season she was placed in 91st position in the overall World Cup.

In the winter of 2008/09 Kornelia Kubinska achieved a top ten World Cup result for the first time with the relay as ninth. Subsequently, she was also nominated for the first time for a world championship in the adult division, which took place in February 2009 in Liberec . The best individual result was a 21st place in the final race over 30 kilometers in free style . A few days before that, she had finished sixth as the second runner in the Polish relay. The starting runner Justyna Kowalczyk had switched to being in the lead; However, Kubinka lost contact with the leading group and handed over to Sylwia Jaskowiec in fifth, more than a minute behind. At the beginning of the 2009/10 Olympic season , Kubinska initially missed further results among the top 30. She won her first World Cup points this winter in mid-January 2010 in the classic race over ten kilometers in Otepää ; The 23rd place was also her best individual result in the World Cup so far. At the Olympic cross-country skiing competitions , Kubinska initially showed outstanding performances, especially in the team races. In the team sprint, she reached ninth place together with Sylwia Jaskowiec; In the season she lost little time as a starting runner, so that Poland was ultimately able to occupy sixth place as in the World Cup. After all, the Polish woman successfully completed the last individual race over 30 kilometers in the classic technique. For more than half of the race she kept up with the top group of around ten athletes and in the end reached eleventh place, while her teammate Kowalczyk triumphed. This means that Kubinska, who was classified in the back field of the overall World Cup, achieved a better placement than several runners who were among the top ten in the overall standings.

At the beginning of March 2010 - about two weeks after the end of the Winter Olympics - it became known that Kubinska had tested positive for the blood doping agent EPO after the relay competition . A B-sample in the following week confirmed this result, whereupon Kubinska was temporarily banned. Polish sports authorities announced that they would clarify the case and punish any backers by excluding them from the sports community. Some time after the positive B-sample was announced, the Polish woman said she did not know how the doping agent got into her body. In addition, she announced a comeback for the time after the ban, since the sport is "her whole life". The doping committee of the International Ski Federation, which met in the context of the 47th FIS Congress in Antalya , confirmed the provisional ban for Kubinska on June 3, 2010 and set a period of 2 years, which expires on March 16, 2012.

She finished the Tour de Ski 2012/13 in 37th place. Her best placings at the Nordic World Ski Championships 2013 in Val di Fiemme were 23rd place in the 30 km mass start race and the 15 km skiathlon and ninth place with the relay. Her best results at the 2014 Winter Olympics in Sochi were 26th place over 10 km classic and seventh place in the relay. At the Tour de Ski 2015 she came in 21st place overall.
