A week's worth of ailment, that's what Smetanina's struggled with, according to latest reports from TASS. Moscow's big-wig, Sobyanin, admitted he's light on the specifics. "Docs aren't spilling the beans and aren't giving any hints about the future," he said, adding to the mystery.
Smetanina, a 72-year-old powerhouse, is renowned for boasting four golds, five silvers, and a bronze in the Winter Olympics. Her trophy collection doesn’t end there; she's also bagged four golds, four silvers, and four bronzes at the World Championships.
Legendary in the world of skiing, Smetanina's widely recognized as one of the most successful skiers ever. She was the first athlete to secure a whopping ten medals at the Winter Olympics. By the time she hung up her skis, Smetanina had claimed the top spot among all athletes (both genders combined) in the total number of Winter Olympic medals. She was also the first athlete to nab medals at five consecutive Winter Olympics.
Smetanina, despite her illustrious career in skiing, is now grappling with an undisclosed health issue, as suggested by recent reports. Amidst the uncertainty, mental health and various science-backed therapies and treatments could potentially aid in her recovery, given the importance of mental well-being in overall health and wellness.
