— Do your native walls help you?
– Yes, such a warm atmosphere. Actually, just a day ago I had a fever, my condition was very serious, but the stands were screaming so much today, so I tried hard. Although it is clear that my progress has not been very good.
— Is personal support from the stands a new sensation?
– Yes it’s sure. I saw posters with me, and in the stands I had my mother and my brother. I knew it, it gave me strength.
— You know this piece better than the others, right?
— Yes, it’s my track, I’ve raced here all my life, so I knew all the nuances, which was my advantage.
— How did you feel when you saw Murmansk on the season calendar?
“I was very happy, I thought it was finally happening!” I remember how the Russian championship was held here a few years ago; At the time, I was still a junior, but I was racing at the adult level. I remember drawing zeros at the time, but I don’t remember anything else (laughs).
— The girls wanted to know where to go in Murmansk and what to try from the national cuisine?
— Yes, I recommended two local restaurants to them. In one of them we ate deer heart, I advise you to try it! It’s a bit similar to liver and meat, the taste is very interesting, but before the race I don’t think it’s worth eating it (laughs), “the correspondent reports, reports Egorova’s words.
