Welcome
speech of the President of the
Russian Triathlon Federation
to participants of Triathlon
European Cup stage.
On behalf of the Russian
Triathlon Federation and from
myself I welcome the
participants, organizers and
guests of Triathlon European Cup
stage!
For the last years Russian
triathletes markedly improved
their results on the
international arena. Russians
won four gold medals in
individual races and four gold
medals in team competitions in
the winter triathlon World
championship in Finnish
Yamiyarvi. The first Russian
world champion in winter
triathlon has become the
representative of Krasnoyarsk
Pavel Andreev.
Almost all the leaders of our
team as well as many other
triathletes
will participate in this event.
I am sure that the coming
competitions will cause a great
interest among the fans of this
dynamic and spectacular sport,
open up new names of young and
promising triathletes and we
will be pleased with high skills
of triathletes and progress
among the absolute leaders.
I wish all the participants of
Triathlon European Cup stage
2011 high speeds, new records
and outstanding achievements!
