“Everything is taking its course. Unfortunately, not without disease. Somewhere in a week, and for someone a little more, Alexander Bolshunov and Artem Maltsev gave up training… Denis Spitsov had just started light training. Besides, Maria Istomine get sick. The same goes for Darya Nepryaeva after the youth championship, when she is not training. Unfortunately, the disease has affected many athletes. Everyone is training, preparing, but the decision will be made just before the start, Borodavko told .
– I remember you said that Istomina even needed surgery. Is she having trouble recovering?
– No. Maria did a very good job of collecting at Malinovka. True, two or three days of preparation have passed. There was severe poisoning, weakness, severe vomiting. But for now, he is gradually recovering. She left for the Dynamo congress, and from there she will come to Malinovka for the competition. Slowly comes to his senses.
“And the other skiers in the group?”
The rest is getting ready. Today the training camp in Malinovka begins, everyone has arrived. Therefore, the final stage of preparation for “Champion Heights” will now begin.
– It turns out that Alexander Terentyev, Natalya Nepryaeva, Ivan Yakimushkin and the others are fine?
– Yes. All those who have not been named before, everything is in order. They were trained quite calmly and evenly. Of course, Terentiev won’t start every distance. It makes no sense to him. And those who are universal athletes will participate in almost any race.
