The leader of the Russian Cup in women’s biathlon Victoria Slivko told Metaratings.ru about the race in Uvat at a temperature of minus 25 degrees.
– You ran one of the races in Uvat with a heating pad in your mouth. Can you tell me how this device works?
— This heating pad is very useful for training in cold weather. It is very comfortable to perform regular training when you are not accelerating. It was very cold in Uvat – minus 25. I thought I would be breathing cold air and decided to run with this heating pad.
When I ran the first lap I realized that it was very difficult, because the air comes in heavier than usual, but at the same time it’s hot air, which is nice to to breathe. On the last lap I started to give my best, so the heating pad in my mouth interfered and I had to take it off. I felt a big difference between the first two laps and the last one. When I ran I thought that later there would be a painful condition, but everything went well.
Slivko after five stages of the Russian Biathlon Cup leads the overall standings with 468 points.
