Press Conference with Athletes

Press Conference with Athletes The International Athletics Tournament for the prizes of Olympic Champion Olga Rypakova, which was successfully held on January 23rd in Ust-Kamenogorsk, will long be remembered by athletes, fans, and track and field enthusiasts alike. We are publishing the interview from the press conference held on the eve of the competition. The tournament guests spoke about their expectations and shared their impressions of their opponents, the arena, and the city. Tetyana Ptashkina: — It was very difficult, and to be honest, I am not satisfied with the result. Apparently, long flights, acclimatization, and time zone changes are tough on me. I barely slept almost every night of my stay here. This had an impact on the competition as well. The result is, of course, quite poor, but it is what it is. — Did Irina Ektova’s withdrawal from the competition affect the course of the start in any way? — Probably not. I don’t usually follow my opponents closely; I try to focus on my own jumps. The season is just beginning, so I need to notice my own mistakes and identify what needs work, so there’s no chance to get distracted by others. 14.08 m, 13.67 m. — Last year I was at the European Championships in Prague. They have a very good arena there. However, I want to note that in Europe, there are generally no separate buildings specifically for track and field like your arena. They usually take a hockey or basketball arena and reconstruct everything for track and field needs before the competition. So, I haven’t seen anything like this anywhere else. It’s nice that people here treat track and field so well. In Ukraine, of course, we have arenas too, but we don’t have an arena of this level back home. Diana Agliulina: — This arena is very comfortable, the starting blocks are excellent, and the track is very fast. If I clock 7.5 seconds here, I’ll be satisfied. Irina Ektova: — The upcoming Kazakhstan Championship will be a kind of control start before the Asian Championships and one of the preparation stages for the World Championships. Therefore, we will try to perform at the national level just as we should at subsequent major events. Of course, I haven’t reached my peak form yet; it’s too early to talk about that. It’s nice that Olya (Rypakova — author’s note) will be jumping at the Kazakhstan Championship, as we don’t meet her at national championships very often. — We treated this start as a control training session to fine-tune our approach runs. We weren’t focused on a specific result at all. A girl came from Ukraine; we had met this athlete before at the World Championships. — The organization is simply top-notch. No other competition in Kazakhstan is held quite like this one. This is the winter start that our entire team looks forward to. Kristina Radzivanyuk: — To be honest, the first time I ever heard of Ust-Kamenogorsk was when I received the invitation to the tournament. Previously, I knew that there was Astana in Kazakhstan and had heard of other cities, but I hadn’t had the chance to learn about your city. My impressions are very positive. The people here are friendly and helpful. The arena is excellent, and the track is very “fast.” Participating in this tournament is a very good experience. Besides, an extra competition in the season never hurt anyone. Hakim Ibragimov: — I have already had the chance to compete against your athletes during various events. In 2012, I ran with the guys in Bishkek, and then in 2013, we competed at the Kosanov Memorial. I used to run the 400m, and I am aware that a very strong result of sub-47 seconds was shown here at this distance last year. For indoor arenas, that is very fast. This season is not the best one for me. I served in the army in the National Guard for a year, so right now I am just regaining my form. I have switched my focus to the 800m. The minimum goal here is to show my best result of the season. But if all goes well, I might even take a shot at my personal best of 1:53.84. Arif Abbasov: — We came here to set new personal bests. Our arena is not like this one… Not at all. There are only three lanes for the 400m. We don’t even run the 200m because it’s too dangerous in terms of injuries — it wrecks knees and hamstrings. I don’t know Mikhail Litvin personally, but of course, I’ve heard of him. . Алексей Губанов

Kaisarova and Mikhina win the Olga Rypakova Prizes Tournament

Kaisarova and Mikhina win the Olga Rypakova Prizes Tournament The First-Ever International Athletics Tournament in EKR The first international athletics tournament in the history of the East Kazakhstan Region was marked by a fierce confrontation between Kazakhstani and international athletes. Competitors from Azerbaijan, Ukraine, Uzbekistan, and Belarus provided more than worthy competition for the domestic athletes. Unfortunately, the number of participants in each discipline was not very high. However, looking at things objectively, a debut tournament could not have been expected to be massive. Now, other countries will surely hear the feedback from our guests, and trust in our event will significantly grow. Three Sets of Three for the Hosts Curiously, Ust-Kamenogorsk athletes were unable to secure a victory on their home arena, settling for bronze medals instead. Erbol Kalenov finished third in the pole vault with a result of 4 meters. To be fair, missing the podium in this discipline was impossible, as only three athletes competed. Erbol tried his best to compete with the more experienced Kazakhstanis, Grigoryev and Filippov, but his result was not even his season’s best—Kalenov lost 20 cm compared to his own performance at the EKR Championship a week ago. Varvara Nazarova also took third place in the shot put. Our famous javelin thrower—despite her young age—competed largely as part of her preparation for the summer season. She managed to surpass the 11m mark, which secured her a place among the medalists. Performances by representatives of other EKR cities were more successful. Elina Mikhina from Ridder became a double champion of the tournament, winning the 400m race with a clear lead and later securing gold as part of the Kazakhstan national team in the 4x400m relay. No one else but Mikhina can boast two victories at the tournament for the prizes of Olympic Champion Olga Rypakova! Regina Kaisarova from Semey (often referred to by her maiden name, Sarsekova, by specialists and fans) reached the podium twice. In the high jump, she was unmatched and became the only athlete in the sector to successfully clear 180 cm. Second place went to another Semey native, Nadezhda Dubovitskaya, who cleared 175 cm for the second time in a week but again failed to conquer the 180 cm bar. As the athlete admitted herself, the issues were more psychological than physical. Olga Khizhnyakova took a silver medal in the shot put back to her hometown of Semey. One of her attempts flew past the 12m mark, guaranteeing her the second step on the podium. Another award for the EKR team came from Maksim Mzelskiy of Ridder in the 800m run. In the final sprint, he snatched second place from the more experienced Sergey Tulapin, beating him by just 0.06 seconds! In total, EKR athletes earned three first-place, three second-place, and three third-place finishes. One Hundredth Away from the Record It was right here and now that the long-standing Kazakhstan record in the 60m dash, set by Svetlana Bodritskaya back in 1997, could have finally fallen. Unfortunately, this record will hold—at least until the final days of January. The magnificent Victoria Zyabkina from Almaty missed the record by just 0.01 seconds! And that was only in the preliminary heat! In the final, the result was slower by another “hundredth,” and the record stood firm. When our correspondent asked immediately after the finish if she felt a record had been set, Zyabkina confidently replied “no,” even before knowing her official time. We hope that at the National Championships, Victoria will finally manage a virtual victory over Bodritskaya, as heroes must eventually change over time. Athletes didn’t even come close to touching any other records. However, this event was merely the opening of the winter season, and the competitors have not yet reached their peak form. “Unmodest” Guests The tournament showed that the international athletes who arrived in Ust-Kamenogorsk came for more than just admiring the beauty of the arena. The most successful were the Ukrainians, who won three major prizes, including one in the triple jump. This event, so iconic for us, became the domain of the European Junior Championships bronze medalist Tetyana Ptashkina, who also set a new competition record of 13.6 m. Despite this, the athlete herself was dissatisfied with the result, citing difficult acclimatization. In the men’s triple jump, the representative of Ukraine, Viktor Yastrebov, also took the lead, proving to be head and shoulders above all the Kazakhstani competitors, who performed rather poorly. Meanwhile, Svitlana Marusenko gave a true masterclass to our shot putters, becoming the first athlete to receive a standing ovation from the stands—and certainly not the last. Notably, Marusenko was the first foreign athlete to secure a victory in an official start here, and with an arena record to boot. Svitlana has every reason to be proud, though it must be disappointing that she fell just 9 cm short of the Ukrainian Master of Sport standard! The victory of Azerbaijani Hakim Ibragimov in the 800m run was equally impressive. According to the athlete himself, both representatives of his country set personal bests, and the victory Hakim snatched in a very tough competition against the Kazakhstani runners was a worthy reward for his efforts. Another guest who didn’t leave Ust-Kamenogorsk empty-handed was the Uzbekistan 100m champion Diana Agliulina. As part of the “Friendship of Nations” team in the 4x400m relay, she secured third place. A Festival of Athletics The atmosphere that filled the O. Rypakova Athletics Arena that day could easily be compared to the All-Star games in hockey and other sports. No mandatory results were demanded from anyone; perhaps only Alexandra Krivitskaya shed a few tears, unable to realize her full potential in the high jump. Otherwise, there was a prevailing sense of celebration. This was evident in the smile of Varvara Nazarova, who is usually in a strictly competitive mood in the throwing sector; in the cheerful chatter of the shot putters; and in the way Sergey Tulapin made funny faces upon noticing he was featured on the arena’s big screen.

Innovative methodology

On December 15, an innovative methodology for organizing the athletics training process was implemented at the Olga Rypakova Athletics Centre, in collaboration with the Regional Sports Medicine Clinic led by Director Alexander Yuryevich Lushchaev. This initiative was carried out in accordance with the training development plan for our Sports School (SDYUSSHOR) coaches. Using a modern device to determine lactate (lactic acid) levels, an experimental training session was conducted for the Kazakhstan National Athletics Team and SDYUSSHOR students, featuring controlled measurements following submaximal physical exertion. Thanks to the data collected, coaches can now monitor the physical workload of each athlete individually during training and assess the level and speed of recovery processes within the athlete’s body. This testing, which will now be conducted regularly at our facility, will facilitate the optimal attainment of peak competitive form for the upcoming crucial starts of the 2016 season.
