Biathlete Victoria Slivko told that during the mass start of the Russian Cup stage in Izhevsk, she thought about young people who must set an example for their development.
Slivko missed a shot in four shooting stages and won with a score of 44 minutes 53.6 seconds. Polina Shevnina took second place (4 misses, lag – +1.18.2), Larisa Kuklina took third place (2 misses, +1.22.0).
— When you left for the finishing lap with such a big advantage, what thoughts did you have in mind?
– It was great. It’s so indescribable, because I’ve been working towards this for a long time, I’ve wanted this for a long time. It turned out that the filming, the route and the weather were in my favor. I ran with pleasure and enjoyed the race. I realized that I still had to run so that the young people would strive to develop and learn certain things.
– Is this your weather?
– A lot of people say yes. Vitaly Viktorovich (Noritsyn) has been repeating since the second day that this is my time, because here strength is not needed, here endurance is needed. Yesterday I didn’t shoot well, but I ran well,” Slivko told .
Biathlon races will take place in Zlatoust from February 11 to 18 as part of the Winter Spartakiad of the Strongest. Watch live broadcasts of biathlon competitions on TV channels of the Match group, as well as on the websites matchtv.ru and sportbox.ru.
