Athletistic/ Figure Skating. Russian figure skater Alexandra Trusova has admitted that she has changed a lot after performing at the Beijing Olympics.

“I always like to try something new and after the Olympics ended I decided it was the right time for it. In the long jump everything became clear after they explained it. What could be compared to this? After the Games, I danced for a month, then we released a video. I like it. In general, the Olympics greatly influenced my changes. Growing up has always been gradual and the Olympics have changed dramatically,” the figure skater said.

At the Olympics, Trusova won a silver medal, losing to Anna Shcherbakova by 4 points. On June 9, Alexandra tried her hand at athletics, performing in the long jump discipline.
