Senior coach of the Russian cross-country ski team Yuri Borodavko told that the three-time Olympic champion Alexander Bolshunov He will return to optimal condition, but now due to problems with the training process he cannot show good moments.
Sunday skier Savely Korostelev became the winner of the 10-kilometer classic-style race at the second stage of the Russian Cup in Top of Thea. Korostelev covered the distance in 23 minutes 25 seconds. Bolshunov finished the race in ninth place, 48.1 seconds behind.
— There are no motivation problems, he had health and training problems in general. For this reason, they were unable to do some speed work on the snow. It is clear that the movements are slow, that there is no sharpness, no power and that he does not reach his maximum pulsations, which he could have shown in his best years. The situation is therefore still far from having reached its peak. When will he come back? Of course he will come back. But it must take time, because not all qualities come so quickly. Speed, speed endurance… A certain time must come. “I will get in shape thanks to the starts,” Borodavko told the correspondent.
On December 2, the Russian Cup will host classic-style men’s and women’s sprints. Watch the live broadcast from 05:55 Moscow time on matchtv.ru and sportbox.ru.
