Four-time Olympic champion Daria Domracheva told how she spent the summer with her husband Ole Einar Bjoerndalen and also admitted that they now live in Monaco.
– Lately, biathlon fans and yours have lost sight of you a bit, so tell us about yourself: how did you spend your summer, what are your plans for next year?
— All summer, my family and I were in Minsk: we rested after a fairly intense period of work in China. Now I devote time to my family and my education. We currently live in Monaco. Ksyusha went to school, and this is a very important period in the life of a child and the whole family. For six years, from the moment my daughter was born, we were able to be quite mobile, I was able to combine professional sports activities with raising a child. Today, the girl’s school schedule compels a lot, and the coaching profession, as you know, is associated with frequent trips. I want more attention to the interests of Ksyusha, so for the next year I do not set myself professional tasks. But I am engaged in education, I study in the specialty “dietetics and nutrition”. As you know, healthy nutrition in sport is a very important topic. Over the years of my sports career, I have accumulated a lot of experience and knowledge on this subject, and now I want to go a little deeper into the theoretical part.
— How often do you visit Belarus?
– The last time we came to Minsk was during the autumn holidays. For the winter, we plan to go skiing in Norway.
— During your summer holidays in Belarus, were you only in Minsk?
– Especially in Minsk, I didn’t really feel like traveling after a busy season, they appreciated the opportunity to just be at home. We managed to visit Mir and Nesvizh castles, Ole and Ksyusha were there for the first time. In Minsk we visited a ballet and a circus and, of course, they planted and harvested vegetables, herbs, berries and fruits,” quotes the magazine of the National Olympic Committee of Belarus Domracheva.
In September 2019, Domracheva led the Chinese women’s biathlon team, and Bjoerndalen became the team’s head coach. In March 2022, they left the national team.
