Svetlana Ishmouratova height - How tall is Svetlana Ishmouratova?

Ishmouratova won the gold in the women's 15 km individual contest at the 2006 Winter Olympics.

But in autumn of 1996 Valentin Zadonski, a coach from Moscow, offered Svetlana to train with his women biathlon team. And in a year Svetlana became the champion of Russia and got a few medals in World Cup races. Despite her brilliant results, she was included in the National Olympic team only after some successful races in Italy not long before the Olympic Games in Nagano. Unfortunately, Svetlana got ill and didn't take part in the Winter Games of 1998. But in 2002 in Salt Lake City she became a bronze medalist in the relay. Besides, she has six World Champion titles (in summer and winter biathlon) and a lot of World Cup medals. Svetlana has been showing stable results for the last five years, reaching high positions in World Cup Total standings (10, 7, 11, 11, 12 places). Svetlana's coaches are V. Zadonski and A. Brylov. They say she is a kind and considerate person, a nice young lady with great will power and a strong character.

In 1991 Ishmouratova became the USSR junior champion in individual race and the champion in senior team race. By the mid 90s she became a strong skilled athlete and entered the national Russian team, showing stable and good results in all kinds of competitions. But in 1996 she was mistakenly accused of doping and so was disqualified for two years (later the official apologies followed). That was the end of her skiing career.

Svetlana Irekovna Ishmouratova (Russian: Светлана Ирековна Ишмуратова ) (born 20 April 1972) is a Russian biathlete. She lives in Chelyabinsk and is a soldier by profession.
