Fesikov, 34, and Anastasia Fesikova, 33, announced their retirement on Tuesday. On November 23, a special swim and farewell ceremony will be held in honor of the swimmers.
– Where would I be without sport? We are addicts in this regard. I won’t reveal all the details yet. A coaching career is interesting, but I’m not yet ready to fully enter this vicious circle. I am ready to transfer knowledge, experience, certain developments, innovations, but this continuous “training-competition” schedule is not yet for me.
I continue to help my team through the general physical preparation system, where we have good level athletes. They believe me, they trust me. They rush into the hall, that makes me happy. In addition, Nastya (Fesikova – approx. ) and I organize training camps, master classes, various events and have collected a certain contingent of children brought to us, ”Fesikov told .
Fesikov won bronze in the 4 x 100 meter freestyle relay at the 2012 Olympic Games in London.
