Kolomna skaters triumphantly opened the international season in Beijing

The capital of China has become a place for the return of Russian skaters to the world arena: the first stage of the World Cup began in Beijing, and already on the first competitive day, athletes representing the Kolomna school of the Olympic reserve announced themselves.

The main event of Saturday, November 14, was the gold of Anastasia Semenova. The student of the Kolomna school brilliantly overcame the distance of 1500 meters in Division B, stopping the stopwatch at 1:58.36. This victory was not just a medal, but a vivid confirmation of the high level of training in our native walls.

Not left in the shadows and Daniil Aldoshkin, whose career is also closely associated with Kolomna. At the same distance of 1500 meters in Division B, he showed a result of 1:47.17, having managed to enter the top five. However, the athlete showed his true character the day before: in Division B at a distance of 5000 meters, Aldoshkin won the bronze award with a score of 6:18,13.

For both athletes, this launch was an important step in the process of returning to the international arena. The success of Kolomens in Beijing is a worthy response to the challenges of the time, demonstrating that the Russian skating school retains its position and is ready to fight for the highest awards.
