Olympic medalist in speed skating Angelina Golikova she said she was feeling tension ahead of the first start of the season, but would not be able to assess herself at starts until December.
Golikova won the 500 meters at the first stage of the Russian Cup in Kolomna. It was his first start of the season.
– The tension was felt before the first competition – waiting for the warm-up, going to the start. But still it’s a different feeling from last year and the year before, when I already felt different. Now I had no idea what to expect, but for such a state I can be satisfied with the result – somewhere there are errors, somewhere more or less normal. I can assess myself closer to December, if all goes well,” Golikova told .
– Will you go to all stages of the Russian Cup? There will be an open ice rink in St. Petersburg.
– It is more likely that I will not go to St. Petersburg – open ice, I’m the kind of person who can get sick if it blows out the window a little. When we had open rink starts in Japan, I went to the competitions before the start, ridiculously bundled up. So, most likely, I will skip this step, but in Chelyabinsk – yes, I will go everywhere to closed ice rinks.
