The favorites won the battle of the relay fours.
The East Kazakhstan Region national team, alas, could not field a relay team in the women’s part of the competition. Unfortunately, there was no one to replace the injured Elina Mikhina from Ridder. The men’s team was let down by a hitch during the first relay transfer. Vladislav Sutyagin and Vitaly Licenberger could not work synchronously, as a result of which the gap between the rivals became noticeable. At the last stage of the East Kazakhstan Region national team, Vladislav Leshin, the champion of Kazakhstan in the 200 m race of 2015, ran, who managed to win back almost 20 meters of the gap, but the East Kazakhstan Region national team still finished second in its race. Unfortunately, this race did not become the strongest in terms of speed, and our four remained without a medal.
But as part of the Almaty men’s national team, Amal Syzdykov, a pupil of the East Kazakhstan athletics school, ran, who managed to win a bronze award. Although he now represents another region, we are still happy about the successes of our fellow countrymen.
