The 19th People’s Sports Games have concluded
Ust-Kamenogorsk and the Tarbagatay district managed to defend their titles. By the way, these teams can boldly be called “dynasties,” as they have not yielded the lead to anyone for many consecutive years! The awards were presented to the winners and medalists by the Deputy Akim of the East Kazakhstan Region, Zhaksylyk Omar, who thanked all participating teams for coming to Ust-Kamenogorsk and demonstrating fair, uncompromising competition over the past four days. The top three in the city standings were Zyryanovsk, Semey, and Ust-Kamenogorsk, taking third through first place respectively. Among the rural teams, the strongest were the Borodulikha district (3rd place), Ulan district (2nd place), and Tarbagatay district. In the future, our portal will strive to acquaint our visitors with the results of all sports included in the program of the People’s Sports Games. Source: vksport.kz
Ridder has a “bronze” from the Asian Athletics Championships!
The final heat of the 4×400 meter relay teams started on the final competition day. Joining Mikhina on the Kazakhstan national team, which ran in the fifth lane, were Yulia Rakhmanova, Alexandra Romanova, and Anastasia Kudinova. Mikhina ran the opening leg and set a good pace for the entire team, which managed to finish the race with the third-best result, trailing only the teams from China and India. The only gold medal for the national team was brought by Victoria Zyabkina, who won the 200m sprint with an outstanding result of 23.09 seconds. This time allowed Victoria to also secure an Olympic quota, which will be the third for the country. Earlier, berths for Rio de Janeiro 2016 were earned by marathon runner Gulzhanat Zhanatbek and Olga Rypakova. Source: vksport.kz
Nurbota Bogenbayeva and Diana Rogachyova – Champions of Kazakhstan
The most “productive” discipline for our young athletes was hurdling. In this event, we won two gold, one silver, and one bronze medal. In the girls’ 60 m hurdles, Nurbota Bogenbayeva claimed victory. Notably, she showed a weaker result in the final than in the heats, yet it was still enough to win — such is her margin in speed and technique. Diana Rogachyova won the 300 m hurdles, outperforming, among others, Bogenbayeva, who finished third in this distance. The only medal for the boys in hurdling was won by Ramiz Kartaev, who finished third in the 60 m event. In other disciplines, the “productivity” still leaves much to be desired. In the flat 300 m race, Dmitry Panin managed to win a bronze medal in competition with nearly sixty opponents. Regina Mitrofanova was just a little unlucky, finishing fourth in the 1000 m race and уступing her podium place to Kamila Kosbaulina. The advantage of the capital’s athlete over our representative was only 0.16 seconds. Meanwhile, pole vaulter Arman Kenesbek and hammer thrower Darya Demchenko were almost “destined” to reach the podium, as they had only one and two competitors respectively. In the team standings of the Championship, the East Kazakhstan Region team finished in fourth place. 1st place — Nurbota Bogenbayeva (EKR) – 9.572nd place — Anastasia Golenkova (Karaganda Region) – 9.643rd place — Maria Olkhovik (Karaganda Region) – 9.674th place — Darya Demchenko (EKR) – 9.705th place — Svetlana Malezhina (EKR) – 9.75 Boys (8 participants): 1st place — Maksat Umurzakov (Pavlodar Region) – 9.002nd place — Ramiz Kartaev (EKR) – 9.093rd place — Denis Fefelov (South Kazakhstan Region) – 9.13 300 m Hurdles. Girls (16 participants): 1st place — Diana Rogachyova (EKR) – 48.442nd place — Adeliya Nazilova (South Kazakhstan Region) – 49.433rd place — Nurbota Bogenbayeva (EKR) – 49.458th place — Irina Skripnikova (EKR) – 52.86 Boys (12 participants): 1st place — Aleksandr Khvatyev (Kostanay Region) – 42.112nd place — Nikolay Karuzin (South Kazakhstan Region) – 43.743rd place — Ramiz Kartaev (EKR) – 44.27

Exhibition of Achievements of Sports Institutions at the HCM
On May 19, 2015, during a meeting of the East Kazakhstan Region (EKR) akim Danial Akhmetov with the regional sports community, the achievements of sports schools were presented, including the EKR State Specialized Youth Sports School of Olympic Reserve in Athletics. The personal record of Olympic champion Olga Rypakova was prominently displayed right at the entrance.
Olga Rypakova: “We tried a longer run-up for the first time”
– What slightly hindered us was the unexpected delay during the flight, – says the Olympic champion. – We had to spend 12 hours in Hong Kong due to bad weather. The overall result is quite normal for the start of the season. For example, in an Olympic year I started with 14.31 m. The Shanghai event was almost like an Olympic final – all three medalists were in the same sector, so there was some nervousness. – It drew attention that the results of different attempts varied greatly. What caused such differences? – For the first time in this competition, we tried a longer run-up. In some attempts, I didn’t hit the tempo or speed properly, hence the different results. Also, the judges measured the result even when I just ran through the sand pit without completing the jump. – How much attention will you give to the Diamond League this season? – This start was also preparation for the main event of the season – the World Championships. We plan to participate in only one more stage right before the World Championships. In addition, I will compete at the Spartakiad of the Peoples of Kazakhstan in mid-June. Source: vksport.kz
