“It was planned that after the Olympics I would end my career. But after a bad season she said she did not want to finish” – biathlete Kuklina

russian biathlete Larissa Kuklina said she planned to end her career after the 2022 Olympics in Beijing, but reconsidered due to unsuccessful results in the 2021/22 season.

Last season, Kuklina played only at the first stages of the World Cup, taking 88th place overall. The athlete was not included in the Russian team for the Olympics.

– I didn’t accept the fact that I missed the Olympics and I still can’t stand it. And the heaviness inside, and the resentment that everything I had planned didn’t work out. It’s such a painful feeling inside. I watched the Olympics, I cried with happiness for the girls.

What else fits in sports? This season hasn’t worked out at all. I didn’t want to end my sports career on such a note. It was planned that after the Games, I would end my career. But after such a bad season, she said she didn’t want to finish.

There are athletes who have shown good results up to the age of 35. I don’t want to talk about ending my career, my husband fully supports me. As soon as I met him … – 32-year-old Kuklina said on Special Reporting on .
