Konovalov is a silver medalist at the 2009 World Championships.
Runner Makarenko on BRICS Games: “It’s completely absurd to compare them to the Olympics”
“The problem is that our federation does not need athletes who have opinions. From the beginning there is a message: your duty is to bring medals, not to think.
I do not like him. Efimova also does not tolerate everyone being openly taken for fools. There is nothing to blackmail her: she has earned money for the rest of her life.
Therefore, she is now fighting not for certain advantages, but for the chance to participate in the last Olympic Games of her career. This is what athletes train for,” Sports.ru quotes Konovalov.
