— You became a mother for the second time this spring. How has your life changed?
— Now I have double happiness (smiles). It’s true, I love every moment I’m with my kids. Naturally, now there is even less time to be with them, because the training schedule is quite busy.
I love my family, I love the people who help me, I love my daughters – they bring me happiness and strength to go and practice. Even if I don’t sleep half the night, I know why I do it. And when I come home from practice, I know both girls will always smile at me – they’re great.
— Has it become more difficult to reconcile the role of mother and that of an athlete?
“Now it is mentally easier than with my first daughter, because now I already know that we have to separate sport and family, and I am calm about the fact that I have to go train and leave them with my grandparents. It has become a little easier in this regard, but physically it is more difficult, “Reztsova told .
