Greetings on start of 2023 Lyzhnya Rossii open nationwide mass ski race

February 11, 2023

Vladimir Putin sent greetings to the participants, organisers and guests of the 2023 Lyzhnya Rossii [Russian Ski Track] open nationwide mass ski race.

The message reads, in part:

“It is gratifying that this wonderful initiative, born over 40 years ago, has become a large-scale nationwide project. Such events – well organised, accessible to all and bringing together a huge number of participants – are in demand at all times. They strengthen one's character, promote the values of a healthy lifestyle and foster balanced individuals. And, of course, Lyzhnya Rossii is a great opportunity to gauge your strength, compete with novice athletes and experienced professionals, and be a part of a large, cohesive team.

Ahead of you is an intense, exciting competition, sincere, positive emotions, friendly interaction, and a bright, unforgettable event.”
