Multiple Russian sprint champion Kristina Makarenko said on that, given her exclusion from international competitions, she finds motivation to improve her own results.
—Where do you get your motivation? If swimmers have a small chance of going to the Olympics, you don’t have one at all, everything is closed to you.
— The desire to show your abilities, to understand what your body is capable of. The main motivation for me is probably to show the seconds that will be important to me.
— What is the basic result?
— Of course, I want to get closer to 11 seconds and be a little faster than this result, but everything should work out. Motivation, conditions and rivals. My record is 11:10,” Makarenko said on ’s “Loud” show.
In 2023, it was announced that the All-Russian Athletics Federation’s (ARAF) membership in World Athletics had been restored after seven years, but the Russians’ suspension from international competitions was extended due to the situation in Ukraine.
