"It was as if I was in another reality - very bright and exciting, though virtual. The whole game was on adrenaline, I liked it very much, and if before that, when my children played, I watched them from the sidelines, now I will certainly join them", - said Natalia Sharafutdinova, an athlete from the Penza region, Honored Master of Sports of Russia, participant of three Olympic Games in swimming in 2000, 2004 and 2008.
