ANTHOLTS (Italy), January 21, Alexander Govorov. Biathlete of the Russian national team Eduard Latypov said he was ready to take part in the remaining two races at the Antholz World Cup. Latypov held his first training session on Friday after a two-week quarantine in Germany due to the coronavirus. The athlete has not been able to compete since January 6. “I can’t estimate my condition in percentage terms. It seems that I don’t feel so bad, I’m in working condition. Let’s see how the body behaves during the race. Still, I was without starts for a month, «It's very difficult to predict. I want to finally give my body a powerful workout. I think that after the first start it will be much easier. Today's training at the World Cup is no different from the training that was in quarantine. I'm doing the same program, I did a lead-up workout. Goal for the mass start — to work at the maximum and realize the form that we have now. I am ready to run both races,» Latypov said. The mass start will take place on January 22, the relay race on January 23.
