According to Darya Klishina's (Дарья Клишина) Facebook page, Darya has been training in the Russian resort town of Sochi. Her status updates seem upbeat and positive. Judging from the training clip below, it seems as if Darya has shrugged off the ill-effects of the injury she sustained last year.
The Olympic long jump competition will be tough, considering the fact that five women have jumped beyond seven meters outdoors this year. Darya, according to the IAAF statistics, apparently has not made her outdoor debut yet. Is she hiding her cards right up until the last possible moment?

As the London Olympic Games near, the prospect of a nail-biting long jump grows more exciting with each passing day.
Godspeed, Darya!
She had surgery on her feet. I hope everything is ok with her now and that she is in good shape! Looking this gallery here http://www.wc-news.com/olympic-games-2012-in-london-darya-klishina-photo-gallery/ she can always work as a model. She is really gorgeous!
