russian biathlete Daniil Serokhvostov told he won the sprint in the Russian Cup stage on the same skis he damaged a few days ago in the individual race.
Serokhvostov won gold in the 10km sprint race on Saturday. He did not miss two borders. After the individual race, the biathlete ostensibly abandoned his ski because he damaged it from a distance by hitting a stone.
— What life hacks did you use to beat the cold?
– I ran in warm leggings, so my legs were warm. The only thing was that my fingers were freezing. It didn’t affect the speed much, it’s just not as comfortable as in thin thermal underwear and overalls,” Serokhvostov told .
– Are your fingers freezing because you have had frostbite before?
“Yes, I have already badly frozen them. Now my arms and legs are freezing. It was in childhood.
Is the risk of frostbite justified?
– It’s sad, of course, if someone gets frostbite here. As you remember, at the Visma Ski Classics marathon, when they ran in the cold at minus 25, and then the athletes had their fingers amputated. Of course, we are not minus 25, but we are minus 23. In addition, we do not run 70 kilometers, but there can be consequences, yes. Fingers – once and for all.
– Is this temperature tolerable for a sprint?
– On the last lap, it froze again. The slopes are very cold.
Are you leaving your skis today? Everything is fine?
Thank goodness he didn’t scratch. I raced this ski today. We have black skis – personal and yellow – the ones given to us. Yellow skis are much better. They told me to run yellow.
Ivan Kolotov became second in Saturday’s race, Vasily Tomshin closed the top three.
