Athletistic/ Figure Skating. Figure skater Ivan Bukin, dancing on ice in tandem with Alexandra Stepanova, admitted that he would not refuse to participate in athletic competitions.

“If they called me, I would participate in such an event. I would run 100 meters, I like it. I would try the pole vault, I wonder how the guys fly there,” Bukin said.

On June 9, as part of the “Week of Athletics” in Moscow, Alexandra Trusova, a silver medalist of the Olympics in individual skating, tried her strength in one of the disciplines of athletics – jumping lengthways. The figure skater showed the sixth result out of six possible, jumping 4.19m long.
