Olympic silver medalist in biathlon Svetlana Mironova told that the coaches work with her in the same way as with other athletes, despite the fact that she trains in the national team at the expense of the regional federation.
Earlier, the Russian Biathlon Union (RBU) said that Mironova will train in Artem Istomin’s group in the new season at the expense of the Biathlon Federation of Sverdlovsk region. The biathlete did not join the team on the basis of sports results, since she practically did not play last season due to health problems.
– Is there a difference in the fact that you train at the expense of the region?
– I don’t feel much difference. The coaches work with me the same way they work with everyone else. I don’t feel any inconvenience. The only thing is that I don’t have a salary at the CSP, I don’t have any equipment, and I have to organize all the times myself. For example, buy tickets, report them for them. Bureaucracy, so to speak. You have to do all this yourself, I’ve never come across this before,” Mironova told .
