According to some record holders, sport is not only training and competition. In fact, it is a certain way of life. The country's champion in running Anna Alminova confirms this message with her own biography.
Starting conditions
To succeed in any field of activity, hard work and perseverance are required. This requirement fully applies to people who have decided to achieve success in sports. Anna Aleksandrovna Alminova at an early age began to engage in athletics along with her peers. Modern sports complexes are not being built in rural areas. Therefore, children with the appropriate abilities are engaged in simple gymnastic apparatus that can be made with their own hands. You can run sprint distances and jump long on the site next to the house.
The future champion of Russia was born on January 17, 1985 in a family of rural intellectuals. Parents at that time lived in the village of Vichevschina, Kirov region. Both mother and father worked as physical education and biology teachers at a local school. Anya already at an early age knew the way to the gym and the village stadium. In their free time, the kids played all available games. Volleyball, basketball and football were favorite pastimes. Both boys and girls gambled in football. Anna loved to run for the distillation. She loved because she ran faster than all her friends.
Athletic achievements and failures
At school, Alminova studied only with excellent marks. Throughout her training, she was coached by her father or mother. By the age of fifteen, Anna was already listed in the country's youth national athletics team. The athlete specialized in medium and long distances. In 2002, Alminova received a certificate of maturity and a gold medal. And literally a week after the prom, I went to the Junior World Championships in Athletics. She went and won a bronze medal at a distance of 800 meters.
Anna's sports career was quite successful. She showed test results and received the corresponding awards. In the summer of 2014, a so-called doping scandal erupted in the sports world. Many Russian athletes were disqualified and stripped of the awards they won. Alminova also fell under this "distribution". The famous runner bravely endured an undeserved blow. For several years she has been training athletes at the Moscow Track and Field Training Center.
Prospects and personal life
In between trainings and competitions, Alminova received a specialized education at the Faculty of Management of the Moscow Institute of Physical Education. She collaborated with the Russian Foundation for the Development of Athletics on an ongoing basis. In the fall of 2018, Anna Aleksandrovna was appointed Minister of Sports and Youth Policy of the Kirov Region.
The personal life of Anna Alminova has developed well. She is legally married to Viktor Chistyakov, who trains pole vaulters. The husband and wife live in the city of Kirov. There are no children in the house yet.
