Alina Zagitova

Journalists also add pepper to their publications and headlines ,
today I saw an article on Lenta.ru with title — "Russian opera singer tore his mouth while performing" :slink:
What is your advice? Is it safe to open this link? :laugh:

Maybe we should start a topic about most bizarre article titles/contend :biggrin:

Good for him. IIRC he also defended Alina regarding someone's "twittergate" incident during the Olympics.
 
These Russian media outlets sound like the USA’s “Star” magazine.

For the past 10 years they’ve been alternating their headlines between “Jennifer Aniston is pregnant” and “Angelina kicked Brad out of the house”.

Eventually they got one right.

Still remember my Mom visiting here (she lives abroad now) and going “Saw at the Duane Reade cashier magazine rack that Jennifer Aniston is having a baby”
Me: which magazine?
Her: something starting with an S.
Me: oh “Star”, by their count she’d already have 20 kids.

Star Magazine Alina cover: Alina is immigrating to America and will now become an Ice Dancer.

National Enquirer:
Alina and Masaru get married by Yuzuru Hanyu in a secret Japanese location.
Iriska has an operation to become a dog.
 
Ooh, poor Jennifer ))

Oh that book, hey it had Ballet (though I wouldn’t recommend watching the Ballet scenes of the movie version, scarier than Halloween 1978).
 
I am reading a book about Zatopek atm (Hi, flanker and paji15 :)), and it discusses how he revolutionised training for long distance running:

Zatopek was developing his own form of this [training] in isolation.
Over in Britain, from the Achilles club at Oxford to their privileged upper class peers at Cambridge, men like Roger Bannister and Chris Chataway held a snobbish disdain for training too hard. Rest was considered far more important and certainly more gentlemanly. ...
Zatopek, though, felt he needed speed more than endurance and so would run harder and faster for as long as possible. Merely jogging interminably was not helping. Inevitably his methods were frowned upon and even mocked, driving him increasingly to run alone.


It resonated with me first time I read that part, but today I somehow can relate to this even more.
Eteri group, including Alina, are changing female figure skating as we speak, and get a lot of 'mockery' along the way.

On related, but more positive note :) - I run more on a treadmill now, given that it gets dark early, and today I discovered that I can watch youtube on the screen in front of me...
Never 40 min of a treadmill running passed that quickly before - I watched Carmengitova several times (from Helsinki, Nebelhorn and Rostelecom), Rostelecom's POTO and Ex. That was great! Alina's energy was emanating from the screen and keep up my pace was easier than ever! :laugh:

Yesss!!!!!!! Emil with his wife Dana (javelin thrower and also olympic gold medalist during OG 1952 just like Emil) are the legends of our sport. :yahoo:

He brought up completely new attitude to trainings, rotating heavy and light loads, partially sprinting, partially jogging. BTW, being an army officer, he developed his training methods by running through the barracks. He didn't use special trainers, he was training wearing his heavy military boots ("to make it easier at the race" were his words - does it sound familiar to you? ;))

Note: Emil and his all life love Dana were born the very same day, september the 19th, 1922. While Emil passed away in 2000, Dana is still alive, 96 years old and one more note, my grandma from father's side was also born in 1922 and is still alive too :).

Edit: Now I found out that Emil is still the only athlete in history who was able to win 5 000m, 10 000m and marathon during one single olympic games.
