The standard-bearer of the Ukrainian national team at the 2018 Olympics Elena Pidgrushnaya has not participated in the racing in Pyeongchang yet and says that it is risky to put her.

"If you objectively speak, then I feel absolutely normal. But now I can not run a control training with one of the girls to compare our strengths. Therefore, of course, putting me on a mix or a baton is a risk.

After training, you can say whether I'm ready or not. I can feel great, but I can not lose to them.. And maybe the other way around. It is necessary to look objectively. At the Olympic Games there can be no risk for the sake of risk.

On short stretches I feel good. As it will be for long distances - it is not known, "- shared Pidgrushnaya, which is quoted sport. ua.

Ahead is a mixed race, for which the composition is already known, and the women's and men's relay races.

Recall, February 18, Ukraine won the first medal at the Games-2018: Freestyler Alexander Abramenko won the "gold" in ski acrobatics.
