Lisowska is a five-time Polish national champion.
In 2011, she competed in the women's 3000 m steeplechase event at the European Athletics U23 Championships held in Ostrava, Czech Republic.[1]
Lisowska competed in the women's half marathon at the 2020 World Athletics Half Marathon Championships in Gdynia, Poland, finishing 51st.[4]
In 2021, she represented Poland in the women's marathon at the delayed 2020 Tokyo Olympics, coming home 35th in a time of 2:35:33.[1]
A year later, Lisowska improved her mark from Tokyo by almost seven minutes in claiming the gold medal at the European Athletics Championships held in Munich with a season's best of 2:28:36. Thus, she became only the second Polish female athlete after Wanda Panfil in 1991 to win a major championship title in the women's marathon.[5] Her Munich result would have placed her fourth in Tokyo. Lisowska added bronze in the team category, and led the Polish team to bronze also at the World Military Cross Country Championships in Beja, Portugal in October.[6]
