Olympic cross-country skiing champion Yulia Stupak explained why she decided to switch to self-training.
In July, Stupak announced that she had left the Russian national team of her own free will to try outdoor sports and was now training freely. Stupak is married to skier Nikita Stupak.
— A month ago you left the Russian national team and are now in self-training. Why?
— Because I’m already an athlete old enough to understand what I need right now.
– What do you need?
— I decided to spend this year with my family. The decision to leave the national team was difficult for me, but at the moment the family is more important, “Stupak told Metaratings.ru.
In mid-April, the Russian Ski Racing Federation (FLGR) approved the list of candidates for the national team and the composition of training groups for the 2024/25 season. Stupak, 29, joined the preliminary group of coach Yegor Sorin.
