Russian biathlete Larissa Kouklina after the third place in the mass start of the stage of the Alfa-Bank Russian Cup in Izhevsk, she expressed the hope that the unsuccessful period was in the past and she would find herself in optimal form for the most successful Spartakiad strong.
Kuklina won bronze in the mass start on Sunday. Victoria Slivko won, Polina Shevnina finished second.
“I really hope the adversity is behind us; the season hasn’t gone well from the very beginning.” I trust our coach Yuri Kaminsky to approach the Spartakiade at the top of my form.
If you want the best, you try a little harder than last year. All this year I trained with men, completed their entire charge, alongside Eduard Latypov. My workload was no different from theirs, this great desire overwhelmed me greatly. At the Spartakiad, speed began to appear, muscles returned to normal.
Second place? I don’t have enough power in the finish line. At the moment I’m so ready, I’ve shown everything I can. Victoria (Slivko) is a great person, she shows this season that she is one of the strongest athletes in our country. “First of all, she is a very good shooter, today the weather conditions allowed her to feel good on the track,” Kuklina said on .
Biathlon races as part of the Spartakiad of the Strongest will take place from February 10 to 18 in Zlatoust (Chelyabinsk region).
