“I worked on every plan.” I take it very seriously. I’m glad I managed to cope with the wind and myself. We were wondering whether to race or not, but with coach Andrei Viktorovich [Бородавко] decided to do this. There were doubts because I had only trained for a month before the competition and before that I was seriously ill.

It seems to me that there was a strong wind. I wanted to do everything in style, remembering the recent race. I expected an attack from Lisa [Каплиной]because she did it spectacularly last year. Good fight, congratulations to the girls, the strongest one won.
