In addition to the other competitors, Manex Silva faced a major opponent this Saturday in cross-country skiing: the harsh weather conditions in Zhangjiakou. Due to a wind of 28 km/h and a thermal sensation of -26 ° C, the race organizers decided to convert the 50 km mass start to 30 km. Despite the adversities, the Akrin living in Spain remained firm and I managed to complete the race in 1 hour 33 minutes and 11 seconds. In the first interview after the achievement, he revealed the drama that lives on the track.
Manex Silva analyzes the evidence and talks about the weather: ‘My face was freezing’
– It was a very difficult test, thank God it was a little shorter than it was supposed to be. The wind is very strong and very cold. I ran well, but the cold made it difficult, my legs were hurting and my face froze. “It didn’t feel very good,” said Mannix, who needed about 40 minutes to recover before running through the mixed zone after the race.

Taking 58th place this Saturday, the 19-year-old became the first Brazilian to complete four events at the same edition of the Winter Olympics. Not only that, with a score of 171.68 points in Beijing 2022, he broke the Brazilian record for points in cross-country skiing at the Olympics, surpassing the mark set by Jacqueline Murau in Vancouver 2010: 172.88 (in cross-country as the lowest. Points added, placement was better).
– I think it was worth it. 50km is not my specialty, 30km is good for me and it ended well. It is very important to see that Brazil is growing and competing in more and more competitions. I hope I’m not the only one (four races disputed) and that this happens more often – he said.
