Coach of the Russian national biathlon team Maxim Maximov considers it fair to postpone the pursuit race at the first stage of the Russian Cup in Khanty-Mansiysk due to severe frosts.
The air temperature in Khanty-Mansiysk fell to -27 degrees Celsius. Earlier, the director of “UgraMegaSport” Valery Radchenko told “” about the transfer of the pursuit from Saturday to Sunday. The relay races scheduled for November 27 will not take place.
– Now we are with the group in the shooting range, doing shooting practice. Were the athletes unhappy that there was no race? I think they’re happy, because it’s too cold to run, and there’s no reason you’re all freezing at the end of the run.
Since the weather forecast here is relatively reliable, we assumed the competition would be canceled today, so we had a good day of training yesterday. And today we have a day off and shooting training, – quotes the words of Maksimov “Championship”.
The Khanty-Mansiysk stage takes place from November 24 to 27.
