Athletes Biography Russia
Elena Isinbaeva was born on June 3 in Volgograd a two -time Olympic champion, in jumping with a sixth bronze medalist of the Games two -time world champion, four -time world champion, recognized athletics, one of the most recognizable Russian athletes, multiple record holder of the world, “Bubka in a skirt” - all this is about Elena. Isinbaeva. She appeared from nowhere: at the age of 15 she started with sports gymnastics, and after six months she won world -wide youth games, and this fact alone speaks a lot about the talent of the Russians.
Over the next 10 years, Elena submitted to the host of titles - everything that she touched was turned into gold. It always seemed that before us the creation from another planet - Elena performed at competitions, rivaling herself with herself, going to the start after the competitors were covered with poles. She was a superstar, the face of Russian sports, a kind of David Beckham from the jump sector.
In the end, show business knocked down, set the bandwagon. Successes were still inertia, and the training process was slowly fading into the background. Isinbaeva made her main mistake - she left the coach Yevgeny Trofimov. The tragedy did not happen right away - the gap between the Russian and the rest of the world was so great that Lena could still win without a warm -up, on one leg.
So far, one day at the World Cup has not taken the initial height. And the failures rolled the snow lump, and when Isinbaeva finally realized the problem, it was almost too late. The Queen of the Sheste returned to Trofimov, but the old coach could not quickly correct the situation. Against this background, London bronze was not considered a failure, but rather saw a sign of recovery.
As the mentor notes, in training Elena is already hitting her own world record. The athlete herself is more and more silent, setting the hour of the Moscow World Cup ... Anna Chicherova was born on July 22 in Belo Kalitva, the Rostov region Olympic champion - in high jumps bronze medalist of the world champion -, a two -time silver medalist of the world championships, the champion of the universal champion - the father of Ani - jumping in heights, mother - mother - mother - mother - mother - mother - mother - mother - mother - mother - mother - mother - mother - mother - mother - mother - mother - mother - mother - mother - mother - mother - mother - mother - mother - mother - mother - mother - mother - mother - mother - mother - mother - mother - mother - mother - mother - mother - mother - mother - mother - mother - mother - mother - mother - mother - mother - mother - mother - mother - mother - mother - mother - mother - mother - mother - mother - mother - mother - mother - mother.
A basketball player, so the future champion was not to get away from big sport. The girl followed in the footsteps of her father, who became her coach. But successes did not come - even after the shift of the coach and moving to Moscow, the talented jump failed to open completely. A year later, Vlashich became the world champion, and Chicherova, having received a silver round circle, in his hearts, she threw: “I am completing my career.” And she fulfilled the promise, never awarded the title of “great”.
Anna became a mother, but, as it sometimes happens, she did not go with her head to the family, but rather accumulated energy for returning. Soon I broke the Russian record, setting it at a mark of 2.07 meters, and finally won the World Cup in Korea. Fortunately, the time of great victories for a young mother has not yet ended. After this triumph, the smiling beauty Chicherova is one of the most recognizable passon athletics.
But she does not need popularity. The jumps have plans to beat the world record of 2.09 meters, which has been belonging to the Bulgarian Stefka Kostadinova for 15 years. A whole scattering of awards and titles of Tatyana Lebedeva is primarily due to the fact that our illustrious jumping jump, following the example of the world record holder Galina Chistyakova, was never concentrated on one form, and perfectly jumped both in length and triple.
In this case, Tatyana will officially leave sports. She already stated this - immediately after the Olympics in London unsuccessful for herself. Lebedev got on her fourth games with difficulty, starting to train six months before the qualifying competitions. In order to soon resume her again - "for pleasure." Despite the sunset, Lebedeva should not be lost - after all, there are already a lot of bright pages in her biography.
The most important dates back to the year when the native of Sterlitamak manage literally everything, and the awards were poured from a cornucopia. She set a world record in a triple jump in the room, but the cherry on the cake, of course, was a gold Olympic reward in long jumps. Then in Athens the whole pedestal was Russian. It is a pity that after four years only a centimeter separated Tatyana from a second victory.
Svetlana Masterkova was born on January 17, in Achinsk, Krasnoyarsk Territory, a two -time Olympic champion - in the run of the world champion - the world record holder of the world on 1 km and 1 mile, which began as a runner, Svetlana Masterkova won the last championship of the USSR, thereby forcing herself to talk about herself. True, there was no bright continuation - after the eighth place in the championship of the planet, Svetlana began a difficult period of injuries, and then maternity leave.
The husband - Asat Saitov helped to return to great sport. Watching his training, Masterova realized that he could try himself on the path again and even prove that she is the best.
It could not be otherwise with her character. But the most amazing - Achinsk native quickly returned to the world elite.These Victorias opened her way to the Olympics, where victories did not expect her. The two more unexpectedly turned out two triumphal race of Masterkova, in which she furnished recognized favorites - the world champions Maria Mutolu and Anu Fideliy Kirot. Moreover, both victories were produced in the same, a branded style - with the lead from start to finish.
After a sensation in Atlanta, Svetlana continued enchanting performances on other paths. Stunning readiness helped set two world records that have not fallen to this day. It is only a pity that four years later in Sydney Masterkova it was not possible to protect the titles-she went back in qualification due to offensive injury. Now she occupies a deputy chair in the municipal council in Moscow, and also heads the metropolitan athletics Federation and the children's sports palace.
It is gratifying that in Masterkova’s meters there is a worthy successor: Maria Savinova from Chelyabinsk over the past three years won six large tournaments, including the Olympics in London. But even such awareness did not prevent a sting and wide open his mouth with delight: Yuri made an amazing jerk, as if there was no six hundred meters behind - and in the final alignment he bypassed the recognized favorite of Wilson Kipketer.
From this, the metabolism goes differently. And I can hold my breath and sit underwater for 3 minutes 40 seconds, ”the athral athlete explained his uniqueness. Unfortunately, despite such data, the Athenian success did not happen in either Beijing or in London, although they traditionally put it on Borzakovsky. The Russian did not even fall into the finals both times, explaining the failures by shortcomings in preparation.
But our athlete, by the way, nicknamed Kenyz believes and remembers that the Africans can be win, and is preparing for its fourth Olympics. There, for victory, it will be necessary to show the time about 1.41, and the athlete is ready for this. How he will drop 4 seconds from his last results - that’s another question. Lilia Shobukhova was born on November 13 in Beloretsk, Bashkiria, a three -time winner of the Chicago marathon, the winner of the London Marathon of the world record holder 30 km, the European record holder, this athlete, is the only one in our list, who was not lucky to go up to the Olympic Pedium.
Although the chances were: in last year’s London Shobukhov was called among the main contenders for victory. And not just like that - Lilia won four of the six largest marathons in which she participated, becoming the first runner in the history of the Chicago Marathon three times. It is a pity that offensive damage did not allow her to finish the Olympic distance.
But specially, for the sake of games, the runner refused to start in the London marathon, which, however, had already won. At the same time, the athlete lost solid prize. In recent years, the triumphs at the marathon races brought Shobukova two championships in the overall standings of the most prestigious World Marathon Majors series and a total of a million dollars. The Olympiad in London became the third for Lilia - earlier she represented the country in Athens and Beijing, and she fled at a distance of meters.
Her subsequent successes in Marathon run are also noteworthy by the fact that shortly before the debut of Shobukhov, she broke scandally with her long -term coach Tatyana Senchenko. But the athlete’s talent helped to get out of a difficult situation, and Lilia managed to prepare herself for exhausting starts with her husband. Valery Borchin was born on September 11 in the hare, Mordovia of the Olympic champion - in a 20 km walking two -time world champion, in walking 20 km already in recent years in athletics, Russians look a head above, it is in sports walking.
And all thanks to the world -famous Mordovian school, Viktor Chegin Khodoks. Among the stronger sex, this is Valery Borchin, who won 20 km in Beijing. This gold became the first for Russians since the year when the great Soviet walker Vladimir Golubnichy won Mexico City. After his victory, Borchin did not slow down, but continued to win, becoming a two -time world champion and remaining invincible to the games in London.
Nobody doubted the next Valery Victoria ... But at first they removed Vladimir Kanaykin from the distance, who was supposed to help on the highway, and then the unexpected thing happened: the Borshchin, who was walking in the leadership, lost consciousness and walked a couple of kilometers before the finish. The doctors only shook their hands and did not find the reasons for what happened.
However, the age of the athlete allows him to take revenge in Rio de Rainero. Incidentally, at the Fifth Tinnik, this is also the first and so far the only gold medal in the history of the Russian national team. Olga Kaniskin was born on July 21 in Sterlitamak, Bashkiria Olympic champion - in walking 20 km Silver winner of games in the walking of 20 km Three -time world champion,, European champion - Olympic champion Beijing Olga Kaniskina in the year, there will be only 31 - excellent age to conquer her second award of external dignity.The fans were happy with Victoria in any case, but Olga was clearly upset when she lost her colleague in the finish alignment.
Kaniskin, for example, won the last three world championships - no one has so many titles! It is only a pity that the champion herself is pessimistic: in an interview, she repeatedly stated that she was not going to continue performances to Rio de Janeiro, and may well refuse to protect the title at the primacy of the planet in Moscow. If Olga nevertheless decides to end his career, the banner will be picked up by the same Lashmanov and Anusya Kirdyapkin, the wife of the Olympic champion Sergei Kirdyapkin.
Irina Privalova was born on November 22 in Malakhovka, the Moscow Region Olympic Champion - in meters with barriers, a silver medalist of games of 4 meters and games of 4 meters, a bronze medalist of the world's meters - in the relay of 4 meters three -time world champion in the room 60,,, meters and European, the best athletics of Europe - the best athletics of Europe - The world record holder in running 50 and 60 meters due to physiological features in running almost always wrapped black athletes, and representatives of the White race traditionally looked weaker.
For example, in a sprint women's running in the 21st century, only Yulia Nesterenko shot - Belarusian sensationally won a hundred -meter at the Olympics in Athens. In the period from a year, she had no equal in Europe, and Irina beat the dark -skinned athletes more than once. At the games in Barcelona, the famous athlete only two hundredths lost to the American Gail Divers, for which she was wandered with her in a year at the World Championship in Stuttgart.
It is only a pity that injuries did not allow Irina to realize her potential at the Olympics in Atlanta. Leaned gold came to Privalova only in Sydney, and at a distance of meters with barriers! The born sprinter was retrained in the middle peasant for a reason: she figured that after injuries she could not fight with Americans on equal terms, and chose a distance at which you can win gold.
And it happened! Less than a year of training - and Privalova took gold and bronze of the Olympic Games, while the final of the race for meters with barriers became for Irina only the fourth start at this distance for his career! After Sydney, the champion again received a serious injury and decided to devote herself to the family. It is a pity that the dream could not come true-after all, a long simple and age could not but affect.
Privalova did not pass the selection, taking the seventh meters and ninth meters in the championship of Russia. Olga Kuzenkova was born on October 4 in Smolensk Olympic champion - in the throwing of a hammer a silver medalist of the game, a three -time silver medalist of the World Cup, the European champion - just imagine - today a world record in the female hammer belonging to Betty Hidler, approaching 80 meters 79.41, while 15 years ago he was ten meters less!
The native of Smolensk has long been known as the moded of the mod in a rather new sport for the weaker sex. The first IAAF officially registered world record 66.84 belongs to her. In general, Olga updated the world achievement seven times, and the more sensational was her defeat at the first Olympiad in Sydney for throwers. Fortunately, the gold of the games did not go anywhere from Kuzenkova - it became the best in four years.
Even in the room.
