Russian skier Daria Nepryaeva said that last season she cried after every race and spoke about the support of the head of the Russian Ski Racing Federation (FLGR) Elena Vyalbe.
— At the start of last season, I cried after every race, because for me it was a blow to the head. I didn’t understand what it was: “I do this kind of work, I train, you could say, a lot more than some of the girls who beat me that year, and it’s not just. With the start of the new year, an awareness came to me, I realized that it was necessary, that it was a passing stage.
The last time I cried was when we were at a tournament in China. I remember that Elena Valerievna (Vyalbe) sat at my table and said such necessary words. I needed that support, I needed those words. His words instilled in me great confidence with which I will move forward into future seasons. Let his words stay between us, but they helped me.
Elena Valerievna really cares about all of us, she worries. Before, I thought that I was just a little girl, that I was neither Natalya Terentyeva nor Alexander Bolshunov. But she worries about absolutely everyone,” Nepryaeva said, as quoted by Sport24.
The first stage of the Russian Cross-Country Skiing Cup will take place at Sommet de Théa from November 23 to 26.
