“Of course, there were moments when I was very disappointed. At first I was very worried and even going to give up sport. It is insulting when you have done a tremendous amount of work, trained despite the pain and discomfort and, as a result, you realize that everything has been decided already somewhere at the top. Thank God, Albina Nikolayevna and Irina Ivanova were always within, they comforted me and taught not to lose heart. I set myself so that I will perform for the audience which always supported me, for my family and friends, and for my coaches. If you can not change the situation, you should learn to enjoy your favorite things. “- Anna Bessonova (X).
