22.08.2008

Denis Nizhegorodov finished third in the men’s 50kmRW at the Olympic Games in Beijing clocking 3:40:14. Sergey Kirdyapkin did not finish, and Igor Yerokhin did not start.
«When I got the second warning, the coaches shouted on me. Ok, do not follow him, go for bronze. Otherwise it could be that I will be disqualified and without any medal. I think I did the right thing. When it would be about gold maybe I would risk», said Nizhegorodov.
