“In the relay race, it’s like I turned into a robot” – Kazakevich on his father’s death during the Olympics

Olympic silver medal biathlete Irina Kazakevich spoke about his emotional state during the Olympic relay in Beijing on the day of his father’s funeral.

“I learned of my father’s death after the prosecution. There were two days left before the relay. Well, those two days were. Mikhail Viktorovich managed to change me, I almost never remained alone. The day before the relay, I said to myself that I would give free rein to my emotions only after the end of my stage. And it happened. I cannot describe what I felt then. It seems like such a cool result, but I have a void inside. The emotions directly stemming from the medal came a little later. When the medals were handed out, my hands were shaking.

And during the race, I turned into a robot. For the first time in my life. I just ran and shot without feeling anything at all. It’s probably true, because I had to do my job, I couldn’t let the team down, Kazakevich quotes the words “Championship”.
