– What good friends girls! Biathlon is a sprint. No matter what we say, we are always explosive. Maybe the shift in remote work plays a part: run, shoot, run, shoot. Skiing is more monotonous. Sprint is more suitable for biathletes. These fast biathletes have a chance to succeed in certain disciplines of cross-country skiing. Not in all disciplines, of course, but in some, yes. I am very happy for Ekaterina and Alena. I would like to congratulate them for this result from the bottom of my heart.

– Isn’t it shameful for skiers to lose against biathletes?

– In any case. Now the end of the season: someone is tired, someone is sick, so it’s normal. We biathletes have always run marathons and championships at the end of the season with skiers. They ran and fought, after all they were engaged in one thing,” Drachev said.
