Five-time Olympic champion Johannes Klebo called skier Alexander Bolshunov a machine and said that the success of the Russian in training motivates him to work.

Earlier, Bolshunov on social networks said that he rode a bicycle for 180 kilometers.

– He’s a car. I will use this as motivation. I can do this workout myself, but I haven’t done 180 kilometers yet. It’s always inspiring to watch people train. I hope that he trains as well as he can, — quotes the words of Klebo Nettavisen.

“For me, it’s a regular workout,” said fellow Norwegian skier Emil Iversen with a smile on his face.

Bolshunov is a three-time Olympic champion and six-time medalist of the Games.

Biathlete Kristina Reztsova said on Match TV that skier Alexander Bolshunov does not greet her, despite the fact that they competed together at the 2022 Olympics in Beijing.

– He doesn’t even say hello! How will he give me the phone number? He doesn’t say hello to anyone at all. I don’t deserve it. So I went to one Olympics with him. After the Games we saw each other everywhere. He doesn’t greet anyone. “He’s just such a person in life,” Reztsova said on the air of the “Biathlon with Dmitry Guberniev” program.
