Beijing Feb 1 Olympiad is the easiest tournament due to comfortable schedule competition, says speed skater Ruslan Zakharov, who is also the 2014 Olympic champion in short track. I think the Games are the easiest tournament because it has a comfortable schedule of competitions, almost perfect except for a few aspects, I think I will have to prioritize the team race over 10 km, a little disappointing because I was fifth in this distances at the last World Championships and there would be a chance to win a medal. I will have to make a decision whether to run two distances or make a choice in the direction of one, because at my age (34 years old) it is already difficult, «Zakharov told reporters. «Feelings are wonderful. We made sure once again that our team has four strong athletes who can adequately run the team race even in case of emergency substitutions. We still have two athletes who, in case of emergency, can replace one of the four, so there are six of us, I'm sure that we will perform with dignity. I want to go home in three weeks and I don't want to be ashamed. My family is worried, I would like to tell them upon arrival that I did everything I could, and that I am not ashamed in front of me, because I gave everything that I have,» he added.
