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.

Winter Championship of the RK, long jump (women) – master class of the Olympic champion
The performance of the Olympic gold medal winner Olga Rypakova became the main event of the first day of the 2017 Winter Championship of Kazakhstan in Ust-Kamenogorsk on February 10. And even in her non–core discipline, the long jump, she won like a champion, with a clear advantage. Despite the fact that the Olympic champion will focus all her efforts on the summer season this year, she showed a decent result in the class – 6.44 meters, at least at the Asian level. At the same time, in two other attempts, she flew 6.41 and 6.37 meters, once again proving that stability is a sign of class. The disappointing moment was that only 7 participants from four regions – East Kazakhstan, Karaganda, South Kazakhstan and North Kazakhstan – entered the long jump sector. The results of the second and third prize-winners are not high – 5.92 meters for Marina Ovchinnikova from Karaganda and 5.76 meters for Anna Gorodkova from Southern Kazakhstan. However, experts advise not to rush to far-reaching conclusions, paying attention, first of all, to Ovchinnikova. Karagandinka is only 18 years old and she has all the data to grow into a high–class international athlete. Athletics Federation of Kazakhstan Photo: vksport.kz
Winter Championship of Kazakhstan. 60 meters, men – geography as a sign of progress.
The men’s 60-meter sprint gathered the largest number of participants — 30 athletes — on the first day, February 10, of the Winter Athletics Championship of Kazakhstan in Ust-Kamenogorsk.The fastest among them was Vitaly Zems from Karaganda. To determine the 8 finalists, five preliminary heats had to be held.Among the 30 participants were two sprinters from neighboring Kyrgyzstan.Another remarkable detail was the wide geographical diversity of the participants: Aktobe, Almaty, Astana, Akmola and Almaty regions, Pavlodar, Karaganda, North and East Kazakhstan regions, Mangystau, Kostanay, and South Kazakhstan. The majority of the athletes were aged 17 to 20.Although none of the 30 sprinters met the Master of Sports standard, 17 of them achieved results above the Candidate for Master of Sports level.The winner of the Winter Championship, Vitaly Zems from Karaganda (6.90 sec), is 20 years old.The silver medalist, Alexander Kasper from Astana (6.91 sec), is 22, and the bronze medalist, Rustem Almagambetov from Almaty (6.95 sec), is also 22.Thus, the prospects for further improvement in their performance look quite realistic.

Kazakhstan Winter Championship. Men’s Long Jump – Flights Amid Applause
Men’s Long Jump Concludes Day One of the Kazakhstan Winter Athletics Championship The men’s long jump event took place on February 10 and was the final competition of the first day of the Kazakhstan Winter Athletics Championship in Ust-Kamenogorsk. The victory went to 22-year-old Takhirzhan Kadyrkulov from Akmola Region. The long jumpers, more than other participants, remembered that the competition is held not only for the athletes themselves but also for the spectators. For those truly competing for medals, the stands encouraged rhythmic applause to help better mobilize themselves for the contest. For Takhirzhan Kadyrkulov, the winning attempt was his third – 7.47 m. Experienced Konstantin Safronov from Pavlodar took second place in his first start of 2017 with a result of 7.28 m. Third place went to 17-year-old Rasul Ismatov from Almaty – 7.25 m. All three medalists achieved results at the level of the Candidate for Master of Sport standard.

Kazakhstan Winter Championship. 1500 m – Awaiting Competition
February 10 – 1500 m Races at the Kazakhstan Winter Athletics Championship On February 10, medals were contested in the 1500-meter races for both men and women at the Kazakhstan Winter Athletics Championship in Ust-Kamenogorsk. The results were not particularly high, but a positive aspect was that athletes from 8 regions, as well as Astana and Almaty, participated in this event. In the women’s race, 9 runners took the start. The most experienced, Tatyana Neroznak from Kostanay, quickly pulled ahead of the other competitors and finished alone, significantly ahead of even her closest pursuers. The lack of real competition allowed Neroznak to run without extra effort. This explains her result at the Candidate for Master of Sport level – 4:25.07 minutes. The battle for second place lasted until the final meters. In the end, silver went to Viktoria Ryzhikova from North Kazakhstan – 4:32.38, and bronze to Evgenia Fandyushina from Pavlodar Region – 4:32.52. Both are young athletes, so it is hoped that Viktoria and Evgenia have much more to achieve in the future. In the men’s 1500-meter race, although the times were not very high, the competition was intense and exciting throughout the race. Lead changes, repeated attempts to break away, and chases – this is exactly what makes athletics exciting for spectators. First to the finish was Alexey Gusarov from Almaty – 3:58.59 minutes. At just 21 years old, he managed to outperform much more experienced competitors. Silver went to Sergey Ershov from East Kazakhstan – 28 years old, and bronze to Mikhail Krasilov from Zhambyl Region – 26 years old. Kazakhstan Athletics FederationPhoto: vksport.kz
Kazakhstan Winter Championship. Pole Vault and High Jump – Limited Contingent
Kazakhstan Winter Championship. Vyacheslav Sakirko: Buda and Ovchinnikova – the Future of Kazakhstani Athletics The Kazakhstan Winter Athletics Championship is traditionally seen as a platform to showcase the potential of athletes who may replace current leaders in the coming years. Following the first day of competition, the head coach of the national team, Vyacheslav Sakirko, highlighted two promising young athletes. “Mikhail Buda from Almaty impressed again in the pole vault,” says Vyacheslav Sakirko. “At the senior Winter Championships in Ust-Kamenogorsk, he took second place. But that’s not the main point. What matters are the heights he is already clearing. He is only 18 years old and just celebrated his birthday in January. Interestingly, in Ust-Kamenogorsk he cleared 4.60 m and 4.80 m on his second attempts, and 5 meters on his first attempt. That meets the Master of Sport standard. Buda clearing 5 meters is not the first time. His current results are encouraging and give hope that he can develop into a strong pole vaulter.” “And which young female athlete do you have special hopes for?” “We have a very promising girl in the long jump – Maria Ovchinnikova from Karaganda. She took second place at the winter championship. Of course, the result – 5.92 m – is not the best, but she has just turned 18. From her progress and physique, it is clear that Maria has the potential to achieve great success in athletics.” Kazakhstan Athletics FederationPhoto: vksport.kz
Kazakhstan Winter Championship, 60 m (Women) – Sprinters’ Rapid Momentum
Kazakhstan Winter Championship. Lyubov Nikitenko: 7.34 – a very good start to the season One of the strongest hurdler athletes of the Soviet Union in the 1970s, now a recognized Kazakhstani sprint specialist, Lyubov Nikitenko, commented on the women’s 60-meter results at the national winter athletics championship in Ust-Kamenogorsk. The victory in the race was claimed by one of Lyubov Ivanovna’s students – three-time winner of the 2014 World Universiade, Viktoria Zyabkina from Almaty. Her result, 7.34, exceeds the standard for an international-class Master of Sport. Second place went to Rimma Kashafutdinova – 7.43 (in the preliminary heats, she ran 7.45). The gold and silver medalists noticeably outpaced the other competitors in the 60 meters. “Of course, I am pleased with Zyabkina’s result, because after the break we only resumed training very recently – on January 6,” explains Lyubov Nikitenko. “Last year, at the Asian Winter Championships, Viktoria Zyabkina ran 7.24, having specifically prepared for that competition. This year we have no major winter competitions, so we are not forcing preparation. Therefore, 7.34 is very good for the very beginning of our training.” — You are the head coach of the Kazakhstan national sprint team. Which competitions in 2017 do you consider a priority for women sprinters?— This year, the Summer World Championships will be held in London. The highest competition and the largest number of participants are in sprint events. Therefore, the goal for the World Championships is primarily to meet the qualifying standards. The Summer Asian Championships and the World Universiade are a different matter. There, the focus is on achieving the maximum result. (At the previous Universiade in Kazan, Viktoria Zyabkina won three gold medals – in the 100 m, 200 m, and the 4×100 m relay – author’s note). — Lyubov Ivanovna, you look great!— Thank you. The students don’t give me time to think about rest (laughs). Kazakhstan Athletics FederationPhoto: vksport
