Three-time Olympic champion in cross-country skiing Alexander Bolshunov said he was not going to hang the portrait of a Norwegian Johannes Klebo for motivation, and also talked about the training process during the offseason.
– So far everything is fine, but not everything is working out in the training process, Anya (Bolshunova) came and it got better. Before that, no training had been obtained. Still, you have to find the motivation and focus on the work, understanding why everything is done. Understanding comes, formation is fruitful.
The guys push me, and I myself can’t stagnate. If you go out you have to prove and climb a step, climb higher, don’t stop there. I hope that the competition will take place and that we will participate in international competitions. All the preparations go in this direction, I expect to compete only with the strongest skiers.
Norwegians often hang my portrait to motivate themselves. Stick a portrait of Klebo on the ball he threw on the ground? Yes, the work will go harder, but I won’t, because I respect my opponents and I’m not going to box them or throw darts at them,” Bolshunov told .
The International Ski Federation (FIS) in March suspended Russians from participating in competitions under its auspices until the end of the 2021/22 season due to the situation in Ukraine.
