Dmitry Abarenov, Minister of Physical Culture and Sports of the Moscow region, noted that interest in cross-country skiing had increased significantly after the victories of the three-time Olympic champion Alexandra Bolshunova .
“Ski Track of Russia” traditionally takes place every second Saturday of February. This is a mass event, the participants of which can be both professionals and amateur athletes. The event was attended by the Minister of Sports of the Russian Federation Oleg Matytsin, who ran 2 km in the Moscow region.
– The launch is one of the most ambitious in recent times. We see the interest today for a healthy lifestyle and cross-country skiing in particular, especially after the victories of Sasha Bolshunov. We have more than 150 ski slopes in the Moscow region with a length of more than 600 km, every weekend there is nowhere to fall an apple in our ski slope parks. Such an influx was expected. We did an additional costume race, our guests and residents came in interesting outfits – from hares to Baba Yaga.
“Did you participate directly in the race?”
– Last year it started, this time not. A lot of guests were invited this time, there was a big program, there were a lot of organizational moments. The hero of Russia, who received the NWO award, Alexander Beloglazov, participated in our ceremony – thank you very much, – Abarenov told .
On Saturday, broadcast the 41st All-Russian mass race Ski Track of Russia 2023 live, the start of the 5-hour broadcast was given at 7:45 Moscow time.
