biathlete Karim Khalili in a conversation with following the results of the sprint race at the fifth stage of the Pari Cup of Russia in Rybinsk, he said he was not in the best condition after the New Year’s break.
On Thursday, overall Russian Cup leader Khalili, playing for Moscow, took 14th place in the sprint race at the fifth stage, which took place in Rybinsk from January 12-16. The biathlete missed three lying shots and lost 1 minute 38.7 seconds to the winner.
The first place was taken by the representative of Tyumen Alexander Povarnitsyn, the second was Petr Pashchenko (KhMAO-Yugra), the third was the representative of the Yamalo-Nenets Autonomous Okrug Rustam Kayumov.
– At the counter, I had a little breeze and I couldn’t stand it. The wind didn’t seem to be very strong, but it was so strong that it was difficult to hit the target.
– Did the New Year’s break affect the form in any way? How did you get to this stage?
— We had a tough training camp in Raubichi. It cannot be said that they were deliberately brought to Rybinsk. On the contrary, this start helps to lead to the next competition.
– Mikhail Shashilov’s group in full force misses this stage, Natalya Gerbulova with Daniil Serokhvostov – too. It turns out that the Commonwealth Cup in Raubichi has a higher priority?
– Yes, in addition, there are three months of competition ahead, a very tight schedule. I think that’s why a lot of people skip this step.
– How would you rate your state of health?
Let’s see how the body reacts. Today, I can rate my health at five out of ten.
Are you used to the leader’s yellow jersey?
– Already used to it. But when you start, you don’t think about it,” Khalili told .
The next start for the biathletes will be the fourth stage of the Pari Commonwealth Cup, which will be held in Raubichi from January 17 to 23.
