Russian indoor pole vault champion Alexander Solovyov said that at the pole vault festival he does not have the feeling of competition and that everything takes place in a friendly atmosphere.
On March 3, the Moscow Arena of the National Research University MGSU will host the 5th All-Russian Pole Vault Festival, in which the youngest athletes and pole vault stars of Russia and Belarus will take part.
— At this start, there is no feeling of competition, we support each other. We don’t think about how we can win, we just have fun.
In our sport, it is very important to root not only for yourself, but also for others. I will support Matvey Volkov, I hope he will support me too. It’s good that the public is very close to us. Thanks to their support, it is possible to achieve exceptional jumps,” reports the correspondent, according to Solovyov’s words.
In February, Soloviev became the Russian indoor champion in the pole vault (5.77).
