World speed skating record holder Pavel Kulizhnikov told that he ran in unusual equipment over a distance of 1000m at the Russian Championships in Irkutsk, the day before having torn his last suit.
Kulizhnikov was left without a medal at this distance at the Russian Championships in Irkutsk. Ruslan Murashov won.
– Pavel, I know there were problems with the suit and you only have one. For what?
– They gave me a new suit, it came apart, we repaired it ourselves.
As a result, the overalls were unbuttoned, a jacket was placed on top and the jacket was given in size XXL. It doesn’t tighten anything, just a parachute, so you sit in slightly different corners. This jacket acts like a sail, you run and realize it’s like a weight is attached to you. There was no way to resist, so here is the result.
– So what are these overalls? How many should there be?
— I tore one when I fell in Kolomna, the second was given to me. And then in the end I forgot. Now the last one is broken. All that remains is the rag in which I ran during the tournament “In memory of BI Shavyrin”, there is no rationalization there.
— As a result, I left the Russian Championship without a medal…
– What does he give?
– At least one salary.
“I don’t know how management is going to decide, so be it.” I still continue to run. It’s not easy after a year of absence, and then I got new boots. There may not be any acceleration yet, but the circle is not bad. “Thousands” is good, and that’s what’s happening here at the championship. Arrived.
— Are you going to race for the best at the Spartakiad?
– Yes!
— Will they have time to make the overalls?
– I’ll ask for two. Please give me two,” Kulizhnikov told .
