Triple Russian champion in cross-country skiing Anna Gruhvina says that Natalia Shevchenko played a big role in his decision to take up biathlon.
On Friday, Grukhvina entered the extended list of candidates for the Russian biathlon team for the new season. In the 2022/23 season, ex-skier Shevchenko won the Russian biathlon championship three times.
— Yes, of course, I consulted Natalia Shevchenko. We talked a lot about this subject, discussed various points. This season, when I found myself in Sochi together with the biathletes, Natasha dragged me to the shooting range, harassed me: “Try, shoot.” I tried. Also, Mikhail Viktorovich (Shashilov) supported.
Good impression. I like it. Very exciting. In general, I weighed the pros and cons and decided to try my hand at biathlon, – the press service of the Russian Biathlon Union (RBU) quotes the owl Gruhvina.
All the races of the stages of the Cup and the championship of Russia, the Commonwealth Cup of the last biathlon season were broadcast on the television channels of the match outfit.
