European mixed singles biathlon champion Victoria Slivko On , she explained what her priority in life was.
On Sunday, Slivko won the mass start of the Alfa-Bank Commonwealth Cup stage in Ufa.
— It was sad at the beginning of the season, you saw how I spent the summer, how I played at the Russian Championship and in Sochi. Then I got a little sick, took some antibiotics, recovered and got sick again.
Even now it is very difficult for me to move, I try to manage the shot, but most often it does not work. Today I felt good for half the race, but then it was tough.
I’m enjoying what’s happening to me, I started enjoying it last year, I’m enjoying training and competitions, a minimum of frustration, despite the bad races. I’m taking things a little easier. I grew up and realized that biathlon is not the most important thing in my life, it’s just a hobby. That’s what I prefer. Happiness is probably family, children. And biathlon is about passing, passing, you must not spoil your nerves, spoil yourself because of the races. That’s life. Today you win, tomorrow you lose. Today I was happy, tomorrow I just said: “It’s okay, it will get better,” Slivko said on .
Slivko is 29 years old, she is the 2016 European champion in singles mixed doubles and in the 2018/19 season the biathlete won the general classification of the IBU Cup (International Biathlon Union).
