Russian Victoria Slanova told about his performance at the Stade de France during the 200m at the 2024 Paralympic Games in Paris.
Slanova took sixth place in the 200 meters final in the T37 class at the 2024 Paralympic Games. The athlete covered the distance in 28.53 seconds. The victory was won by Chinese Xiaoyan Wen (25.86).
— The final took place in the rain, the American even fell on the finish line.
– I was afraid of that too. The rain could have been a problem, even though the track is very good and rolling. I really liked it when I tried it during the warm-up yesterday. I’m only unhappy with the finish. I don’t know why it happened. I had to take shorter and more frequent steps. But I did better in the 400m. Overall, I’m happy with the start. I’ll also compete here in the 100m and 400m. It’s just the beginning, it’s the first day.
— About 60,000 spectators gathered at the Stade de France. Were you impressed by the fury with which the stadium roared?
– Yes, it was impressive. Of course, the public supported their Frenchwoman. She ran with me…
— And took fifth place (28.20).
“The noise didn’t bother me at all.” I focused on the start. This is my first start in life with such a large number of spectators. I really liked it. On the contrary, it’s charging! — Slanova told .
The Paralympic Games in the French capital will end on September 8.
