Olympic medalist in speed skating Daniel Aldochkin told he turned down an invitation to train in China because he decided he still needed to gain experience.
– I don’t have enough training and experience yet, although I have already achieved something at my young age in sports. But still, there is still little experience and, it seems to me, it will not be enough to leave the coach like this now, with whom I have been working since the sixth year. Suddenly changing everything, hoping everything will work out there, is extremely risky. First of all, I’m an athlete, I hope I still have time to earn money.
The project in China is interesting, new experience, new opportunities. And thank you for calling me. But I still need to acquire sportsmanship and experience. Victor Aleksandrovich Sivkov can give me that with vengeance.
Was he sensitive to the situation?
– I was not radically against it. I flew to his house, I spoke. He said he couldn’t stand me and of course he was thrilled when I decided to stay.
— How is collection going in Kazakhstan?
– Slightly blurred the effect, in the end I got sick. And so all is well. The team is great, I like it a lot. Equal composition, competent approach, many new young men appeared, who were brought into the group by Viktor Aleksandrovich. Youth is always good.
– Said Daniil Aldoshkin, who recently turned 21.
– Yes, they are only two or three years younger than me, but in the group I am already a “veteran” (laughs).
