Figure skater Valieva said she wants to run a marathon in sports
Russian figure skater Kamila Valieva spoke about her goals in sports. Her words are quoted by “Championship”.
“I really want to run a marathon in this sport, not a sprint. It’s better step by step than everything at once or nothing at all,” said the 17-year-old figure skater.
On November 10, the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) completed hearings on Valieva’s doping case. The final decision in the athlete’s case will be made in January 2024.
At the 2022 Olympic Games, Valieva won gold in the team competition, but the Russian team was not awarded due to the doping scandal involving her. Traces of a prohibited drug were found in the skater’s sample from December 2021. At the same time, CAS allowed her to participate in the individual tournament, where she took fourth place.
Valieva is a world champion among juniors and a European champion among adults.
