“As soon as Armand throws, blows, and as soon as I need to prepare, he’s still calm,” A. Gudžius complained to coach Vaclovas Kidykas after six attempts in the Vingis Park Discus Throw sector, having previously laughed at the stadium. thrown by the wind.
And in fact, while the javelin throwers complained of excessive gusts of wind, the star throwing the puck ran out of wind to full happiness.

“Normally,” said A. Gudžius when asked how he evaluates today’s performance. “I still feel that somewhere the technology is failing from time to time, but otherwise everything is in order.”
A.Gudžius achieved the best result on the last sixth attempt: his best shot so far reached 67.02m, and on the fourth and fifth attempt the Kaunas resident did not wait for the result and left the sector a little disappointed.
However, whispering before the last attempt he needed at least 67 meters, and soon rumbling powerfully and exciting athletic fans gathered in the stands of the Vingis Park stadium, A. Gudžius shone mightily, achieving his second result this season.
“The last one I shot, I said 67 should be. But today the feeling is a bit “boring”: yesterday it was hot, it was very good in training and today it is a little colder, the muscles are a little stiff and a meter has already been “bitten”. But the stability is that if we go to the camp, the results should go up. I hope everything is fine, “said the discus thrower.
Feeling a little “bored” today
After performing at the Cosma Cup, A. Gudžius spoke about the results of the training, the preparations for the Lithuanian Athletics Championships to be held in Palanga on 7 and 8 August and the upcoming international beginnings.
– How much did you lose in training?
– 69 – what a secret here. But in training, it was always better to “shoot” and it was hot. But in a couple of weeks and we can do everything in the competition too.
– Next start – Lithuanian Championship?
– yeah Now, until the Lithuanian championship, we will camp and the objective will be to prepare myself to realize what I can in the championship. We will see how it will be.
– Were the weather and wind favorable for discus throwers?
– The good weather started when the race ended (smiles). Today, the wind in Vilnius rotates: a launcher launches, it blows really well, and when I’m going to launch, it doesn’t blow, or the other way. Well, nothing. The competition ended, it even started to change the stands. I say it could have “flown” in the last (launch), it would be nice.

– Will you have a competition this year that needs to achieve optimal sports form?
– The competition only starts in August, so now I participate in Lithuania everywhere, whenever possible, to prepare for international beginnings. I will go abroad in August to participate. Of course, unless something else happens to COVID-19 and close the walls again. But I hope everything is fine.
