Today, the first part of the Asian Games in Harbin returned to Astana International Airport. Among them are bronze medalists in the team sprint speed skating Nadezhda Morozova and Darya Vazhenina.
"I'm participating in the World Cups. But the scale and level of organization of the Winter Asian Games are completely different. We fought for the prize as much as we could. We had a plan for the team competition. As a result, we took third place. Our opponents are not weak either. South Korean representative Kim Min-sun and Chinese athlete Han Mei won silver medals at the World Championships last year," said Darya Vazhenina.
14 medals were up for grabs in Harbin speed skating, and the Kazakh team won 1 silver and 1 bronze. The double prize is also of special importance. Because Yevgeny Koshkin won silver in the 100-meter dash and the women's team event, which had previously been without a medal.
