– Tell me about the finish. Were you upset?
– Mixed feelings. It worked very well. But two failures in a sprint is a lot. I can’t find the balance between speed and shooting. Unpredictable weather. The wind is shifting from right to left. Everyone was wrong today. And he came third. Now I’m very happy.
– What’s wrong with your progress? What did you add?
– I don’t know myself. I want to thank Sergei Gennadievich Bashkirov. Even in the summer, I understand what I will feel in the winter. Last year, there was no such feeling. Perhaps more cross-training. It takes time to feel your body during filming and continue working.
-What is the goal here?
“The coaching staff immediately set us a goal: to have fun, feel our bodies, understand how to run and shoot and not make unnecessary mistakes. This is a competition anyway. All athletes prepared for it in one way or another,” Emerkhonov told .
The women’s sprint race will take place later on Saturday. Watch the live broadcast on channel from 11:40 Moscow time. You can also follow the race on matchtv.ru and sportbox.ru.
