The captain of the Ukrainian men’s biathlon team was injured before the summer world championship.
Dmitry Pidruchny was injured before the summer biathlon world championship began. Yuraj Sanitra, head coach of the Ukrainian national team, spoke about it in an interview with biathlon.com.ua. According to the specialist, an unpleasant incident occurred during a joint training session of our team with the well-known German Eric Lesser.
– Now you are in the Oberhof. How is the collection?
– In a word, I can say – great. Very good condition, we do a lot of heavy training work. We put a little emphasis on being adequately prepared for the summer world championship (to be held at the German Ruhpolding from August 25 to 28), because we want to play there as Team A.
– The boys had a training session on a bicycle on Sunday, and not everyone arrived at the hotel unscathed. How will this incident affect the training plan?
– Here we met Eric Lesser, and we used the opportunity to practice with him, because he knew very well the terrain and training tracks. True, he chose a difficult track, the boys came back tired, and some had minor injuries. The worst situation was with Dmitry Pidruchny, who fell on his arm and had a problem with his right wrist. But, I think in a few days he will fully carry out the whole training process. It’s a good exercise, everyone has brought some kind of scar on their arm or leg, but it only strengthens us mentally in the long run.
Recall that Dmitry Pidruchny previously thanked the Armed Forces of Ukraine.
