Biathlete Alexander Povarnitsyn told what goals he set for the sprint race at the stage of the Alfa-Bank Commonwealth Cup in Murmansk, which took place on his 30th birthday.
Povarnitsyn turned 30 on Friday. On his birthday, the biathlete took second place in the sprint with a penalty.
—How does it feel to run on your birthday?
— Honestly, that’s not what I’d want to do on my birthday. Still, I want to celebrate. The shot, of course, was not ideal, but with just one penalty you can overcome it.
– What did you wish for that day?
“They wanted everything you could want.”
—Did you wish for something yourself?
– Finally win. I haven’t had any victories for a long time, only prizes. It was clear that this was unlikely to succeed in the sprint, but still.
— What does 30 years mean to you?
– This is a good date, indicating that the head should be turned more carefully. Childhood is over. It’s time to start thinking with your head.
— You haven’t thought about it before?
– Thought. We are all human and make mistakes. I would like there to be fewer of these errors,” reports the correspondent of , reporting Povarnitsyn’s words.
