Despite the fact that Katya planned to start a family only after the end of her sports career, this happened a little earlier. Yekaterina Yurlova's husband, Josef Percht, is a masseuse of the Austrian biathlon team, with whom she married in 2015. The wedding took place during training camps Yurlova in Austria, and the newlyweds signed in the town hall of the city of Ramsau. A year later, Katya and her husband became the parents of a little daughter, whom they named Kira.

The appearance of a child did not put an end to sports career Yurlova - even during pregnancy, she carried out light workouts so as not to lose shape. Now with little Kira, when Katya has to leave for training camps or competitions, her mother is sitting - it is still difficult for her daughter to endure the transfers. However, she has already visited Josef's homeland with Austrian grandparents. Yurlova says that the family helps her in many ways, including during the period when she was recovering and was preparing to return to sports after the birth of her daughter. The appearance of a child has changed her life in many ways, and now, after the competition, Katya is trying to return to Kira as soon as possible.
Ekaterina Yurlova was born in Leningrad on February 23, 1985, and started skiing very early, and in 2005 she came to biathlon. She took part in the European Cup competitions, in 2007/2008 she entered the World Cup race for the first time. Sports did not prevent Yurlova from getting higher education in the specialty "sports psychologist", and later independently study in English and now it is not difficult for her to communicate with foreign colleagues when she has to travel to competitions and training camps in other countries. And Katya also writes poetry and even released her own collection of poetry "Waiting for Spring".

An excerpt characterizing Yurlova, Ekaterina Viktorovna
- Maybe because without pain and trials, even the best people would not really understand the same good? - I joked.But Stella for some reason did not take it as a joke at all, but said very seriously:
- Yes, I think you're right ... Do you want to see what happened to Harold's son next? - already more cheerful she said.
- Oh no, perhaps no more! - I begged.
Stella laughed happily.
- Do not be afraid, this time there will be no trouble, because he is still alive!
- How - alive? - I was surprised.
Immediately, a new vision appeared again and, continuing to surprise me indescribably, it turned out to be our century (!), And even our time ... A gray-haired, very pleasant person was sitting at the desk and thinking about something with concentration. The whole room was literally packed with books; they were everywhere - on the table, on the floor, on the shelves, and even on the windowsill. A huge fluffy cat was sitting on a small sofa and, not paying any attention to the owner, was concentrating on washing with a large, very soft paw. The whole atmosphere created the impression of "scholarship" and comfort.
- Is that - he lives again? .. - I did not understand.
Stella nodded.
- And this is right now? - I did not calm down.
The girl again confirmed with a nod of her cute red head.
- Harold must be very strange to see his son so different? .. How did you find him again?
- Oh, exactly the same! I just "felt" his "key" the way my grandmother taught. - Stella said thoughtfully. - After Axel died, I looked for his essence on all the "floors" and could not find it. Then I looked among the living - and he was there again.
- And do you know who he is now, in this life?
- Not yet ... But I will definitely find out. I tried many times to "reach out" to him, but for some reason he does not hear me ... He is always alone and almost all the time with his books. With him only the old woman, his servant and this cat.
- Well, what about Harold's wife? Did you find her too? ”I asked.
- Oh, of course! You know your wife - this is my grandmother! .. - Stella smiled slyly.
I froze in real shock. For some reason, such an incredible fact did not want to fit into my dumbfounded head ...
- Grandma? .. - that's all I could say.
Stella nodded, very pleased with the effect.
- How so? Is that why she helped you find them? Did she know?! .. - Thousands of questions were spinning furiously in my agitated brain at the same time, and it seemed to me that I would never have time to ask everything of interest to me. I wanted to know EVERYTHING! And at the same time I perfectly understood that no one was going to tell me "everything" ...
- I probably chose him because I felt something. - Stella said thoughtfully. - Maybe your grandmother brought it up? But she will never admit, ”the girl waved her hand.
- And HE? .. Does he know too? - I could only ask.
- Yes, of course! - Stella laughed. - Why does it surprise you so much?
“It's just that she’s already old ... It must be hard for him,” I said, not knowing how to more accurately explain my feelings and thoughts.
- Oh no! - Stella laughed again. - He was glad! Very, very happy. Grandma gave him a chance! No one could help him with this - but she could! And he saw her again ... Oh, it was so great!
And then only at last I understood what she was talking about ... Apparently, Stella's grandmother gave her former “knight” the chance he had so hopelessly dreamed of throughout his long life after physical death. After all, he had been looking for them for so long and stubbornly, so madly wanted to find them, that he could only say once: how terribly he regrets that he had once left ... that he could not protect ... that he could not show how much and He loved them selflessly ... He needed to death that they try to understand him and could somehow forgive him, otherwise he had no reason to live in any of the worlds ...
And so she, his dear and only wife, appeared to him as he always remembered her, and gave him a wonderful chance - she gave forgiveness, and in the same way, gave life ...
It was only then that I really understood what Stellina's grandmother meant when she told me how important such a chance I gave to the “departed” is ... Because, probably, there is nothing worse in the world than being left with unforgiven guilt resentment and pain to those without whom our whole past life would not make sense ...
I suddenly felt very tired, as if this most interesting time spent with Stella took away the last drops of my remaining strength ... I completely forgot that this “interesting”, like everything interesting before, had its “price”, and therefore, again, as before, for today's "walks", I also had to pay ... It's just that all these "viewing" of other people's lives were a huge burden for my poor, not yet accustomed to this, physical body and, to my great regret , so far I have had enough for a very short time ...
- Don't worry, I'll teach you how to do it! - as if having read my sad thoughts, Stella said cheerfully.
- What to do? - I did not understand.
- Well, so you can stay with me longer. - Surprised by my question, the baby answered. - You're alive, that's why it's difficult for you. And I will teach you. Do you want to take a walk where the "others" live? And Harold will wait for us here. - Slyly wrinkling a small nose, asked the girl.
- Right now? I asked very hesitantly.
She nodded ... and we suddenly "fell through" somewhere, "seeping" through the "stardust" shimmering with all the colors of the rainbow, and found ourselves in another, completely different from the previous, "transparent" world ...
* * *
Oh, angels !!! Look, Mommy, Angels! - suddenly squeaked nearby someone's thin voice.
I still could not wake up from the unusual "flight", and Stella was already sweetly chirping something to the little chubby girl.
- And if you are not angels, why are you so sparkling? How handsome he is! ..
It was only then that we noticed that Stella's last “work” also “failed” with us - her funniest red “dragon” ...
Svetlana at 10 years old
- This ... what about this? The baby asked with a breath. - Can I play with him? .. He will not be offended?
Mom apparently mentally pulled her back severely, because the girl was suddenly very upset. Tears welled up on warm brown eyes and it was clear that just a little more - and they would flow like a river.
- Just don't cry! Stella asked quickly. - Do you want me to do the same for you?
The girl's face instantly lit up. She grabbed her mother's hand and squealed happily:
- You hear, mommy, I have not done anything wrong and they are not angry with me at all! Can I have one too? .. I really will be very good! I promise you very, very much!
Mom looked at her with sad eyes, trying to decide how to answer correctly. And the girl suddenly asked:
- Have you seen my dad, good glowing girls? He and my brother disappeared somewhere ...
Stella looked at me questioningly. And I already knew in advance what she would offer ...
- Do you want us to look for them? - as I thought, she asked.
- We have already searched, we have been here for a long time. But they are not. - The woman answered very calmly.
- And we will look differently, - Stella smiled. “Just think of them so we can see them and we will find them.
The girl closed her eyes funny, apparently trying very hard to mentally create a picture of her dad. Several seconds passed ...
- Mom, how is it - I don't remember him? .. - the little girl was surprised.
I heard this for the first time and, surprisingly, in Stellina's big eyes, I realized that for her it was also something completely new ...
- How so - don't you remember? - did not understand the mother.
- Well, I look, I look and I don't remember ... How is it, I love him very much? Maybe he really isn't there anymore? ..
- Excuse me, but can you see him? I asked my mother cautiously.
The woman nodded confidently, but suddenly something in her face changed and it was clear that she was very confused.
- No ... I can't remember him ... Is this really possible? - already almost frightened she said.
- And your son? Can you remember? Or brother? Can you remember your brother? - Addressing both of them at once, asked Stella.
Mom and daughter shook their heads.
Usually such a cheerful, Stella's face looked very preoccupied, probably could not understand what was happening here. I literally felt the hard work of her living and such an unusual brain.
- Invented! I came up with it! - Stella suddenly squealed happily. - We will "dress" your images and go for a walk. If they are somewhere, they will see us. It's true?
I liked the idea, and all that remained was to mentally “change clothes” and go in search.
- Oh, please, can I stay with him until you return? - the baby stubbornly did not forget her desire. - And what is his name?
- Not yet, - Stella smiled at her. - and you?
- Leah. - Answered the baby. - Why do you glow? We saw such people once, but everyone said that they were angels ... And who are you then?
- We are the same girls as you, only we live “upstairs”.
- And where is the top? - did not appease little Leah.
“Unfortunately, you cannot go there,” Stella, who was in difficulty, tried to explain somehow. - Do you want me to show you?
The little girl jumped for joy. Stella took her by the handle and opened her stunning fantasy world to her, where everything seemed so bright and happy that she didn't want to believe it.
Leah's eyes became like two huge round saucers:
- Oh, beauty, but what ah! .... And what is this - paradise? Oh mothers! .. - the little girl squeaked enthusiastically, but very quietly, as if afraid to frighten off this incredible vision. - And who lives there? Oh, look what a cloud! .. And golden rain! Does this happen? ..
- Have you ever seen a red dragon? Leah shook her head. - Well, you see, it happens to me, because this is my world.
- And you then, what - God ??? “But God cannot be a girl, can he? And then, who are you? ..
Questions poured from her like an avalanche and Stella, not having time to answer them, laughed.
Not busy with "questions-answers", I began to slowly look around and was completely amazed by the extraordinary world that was opening up to me ... It was, in truth, a very real "transparent" world. Everything around sparkled and shimmered with some kind of blue, ghostly light, from which (as it should) for some reason did not become cold, but on the contrary - it warmed with some unusually deep, penetrating the soul with warmth. From time to time, transparent human figures floated around me, now condensing, now becoming transparent, like a luminous fog ... This world was very beautiful, but somehow fickle. It seemed that he was changing all the time, not knowing exactly how to stay forever ...
- Well, are you ready to "walk"? - A cheerful Stellin's voice pulled me out of my dreams.
- Where are we going? - Waking up, I asked.
- Let's go look for the missing! - the baby smiled cheerfully.
- Dear girls, will you still allow me to watch your dragon while you walk? - not wishing to forget him for anything, with downcast eyes, asked little Leah.
- Well, keep watch. Stella said graciously. - Just don't give it to anyone, otherwise he is still a baby and may be frightened.
- Oh, well, oh you, how can you! .. I will love him very much until you return ...
The girl was ready to just flatter out of her skin, just to get her incredible "miracle dragon", and this "miracle" puffed and puffed, apparently trying her best to please, as if she felt that it was about him ...
- And when will you come again? Are you coming very soon, dear girls? - secretly dreaming that we will come very soon, asked the baby.
Stella and I were separated from them by a shimmering transparent wall ...
- Where do we start? - seriously anxious girl asked seriously. - I have never met such a thing, but I’m here not so long ago ... Now we have to do something, right? .. We did promise!
- Well, let's try to "put on" their images, as you suggested? - I said without thinking for a long time.
Stella quietly "conjured" something, and a second later she looked like a round Leah, well, of course, I got Mom, which made me laugh ... whom we hoped to find the missing people we needed.
- This is positive side using other people's images. And there is also a negative one - when someone uses it for bad purposes, like the entity that put on the grandmother's "key" so that she could beat me. Grandma explained everything to me ...
It was funny to hear how this tiny little girl, in a professorial voice, expounded such serious truths ... But she really took everything very seriously, despite her sunny, happy nature.
- Well, let's go, "girl Leah"? I asked with great impatience.
I really wanted to see these, other, "floors" while I still had enough strength for it. I already managed to notice what a big difference there was between this one, in which we were now, and the "upper", Stellin "floor". Therefore, it was very interesting to quickly "plunge" into another unfamiliar world and learn about it, if possible, as much as possible, because I was not at all sure whether I would return here someday.
- Why is this “floor” much denser than the previous one, and more filled with entities? I asked.
“I don’t know ...” Stella shrugged her fragile shoulders. - Maybe because they just live here good people who did no harm to anyone while they lived in their last life... Therefore, there are more of them here. And above there are beings that are "special" and very strong ... - then she laughed. - But I'm not talking about myself, if you thought that! Although my grandmother says that my essence is very old, more than a million years ... It's horrible, how much, isn't it? Who knows what happened a million years ago on Earth? .. - said the girl thoughtfully.
- Maybe you were not on Earth at all then?
- And where?! .. - Stella asked dumbfounded.
- Well I do not know. Can't you take a look? ”I wondered.
It seemed to me then that with her abilities EVERYTHING is possible! .. But, to my great surprise, Stella shook her head.
- I still know very little, only what my grandmother taught. - As if regretting, she answered.
- Do you want me to show you my friends? - I suddenly asked.
And without letting her think, she unfolded in her memory our meetings, when my wonderful "star friends" came to me so often, and when it seemed to me that nothing more interesting could be ...
- Oh, this is some kind of beauty! ... - Stella breathed out with delight. And suddenly, seeing the same strange signs that they showed me many times, she exclaimed: - Look, it was they who taught you! .. Oh, how interesting it is!
I stood in a completely frozen state and could not utter a word ... Did they teach ??? ... Really all these years I had some kind of important information, and instead of somehow understanding it, I, like a blind kitten, floundered in my petty attempts and guesses, trying to find some truth in them ?! ready-made "? ..
Even without knowing what they taught me there, I simply “seethed” with indignation at myself for such an oversight. Just think, some “secrets” were revealed right in front of my nose, but I didn’t understand anything!
- Oh, don't be so worried! Stella laughed. - Show it to your grandmother and she will explain to you.
- Can I ask you - who is your grandmother after all? - Embarrassed to enter the "private territory", I asked.
Stella thought about it, wrinkling her nose in a funny way (she had this funny habit when she was seriously thinking about something), and said not very confidently:
- I don’t know ... Sometimes it seems to me that she knows everything, and that she is very, very old ... We had a lot of photographs at home, and she is the same everywhere - the same as now. I never saw how young she was. Strange, isn't it?
- And you never asked? ..
- No, I think she would have told me if it was necessary ... Oh, look! Oh, how beautiful! .. - the baby suddenly squeaked in delight, pointing with her finger at the strange sea waves sparkling with gold. It was certainly not the sea, but the waves were really very similar to the sea ones - they rolled heavily, overtaking each other, as if playing, only at the place of the break, instead of the snow-white sea foam, everything here was completely sparkled and shimmered with red gold spraying thousands of transparent golden splashes ... It was very beautiful. And we naturally wanted to see all this beauty closer ...
When we got close enough, I suddenly heard thousands of voices that sounded simultaneously, as if playing some strange, unlike anything, magical melody. It was not a song, and not even music we are used to ... It was something completely unthinkable and indescribable ... but it sounded amazing.
- Oh, this is a thinking sea! Oh, you will definitely like this! - Stella squealed cheerfully.
- I already like it, but isn't it dangerous?
- No, no, don't worry! It's just to calm down the "lost" souls who are still sad after coming here ... I listened to it here for hours ... It is alive, and for every soul "sings" something else. Do you want to listen?
And I just now noticed that many entities are splashing in these golden, sparkling waves ... Some of them just lay on the surface, gently swaying on the waves, others dived into the “gold” with their heads, and did not appear for a long time, apparently completely submerging into a mental "concert" and not in a hurry to return from there ...
- Well, what - shall we listen? The baby pushed me impatiently.
We came close ... And I felt a wonderfully soft touch of a sparkling wave ... It was something incredibly gentle, surprisingly tender and soothing, and at the same time, penetrating into the very "depths" of my surprised and slightly wary soul ... Quiet "music" ran along my foot, vibrating in millions of different shades, and, rising up, began to envelop me with something fabulously beautiful, something that defied any words ... I felt that I was flying, although there was no flight in reality it was not. It was wonderful! .. Each cell dissolved and melted in the oncoming new wave, and the sparkling gold washed right through me, carrying away everything bad and sad and leaving only pure, primordial light in my soul ...
I didn’t even feel how I entered and plunged into this sparkling miracle almost with my head. It was just incredibly good and I didn't want to ever go out ...
- Well, that's it, that's enough already! The task awaits us! - the energetic Stellin's voice burst into the radiant beauty. - Did you like it?
- Oh, how! I gasped. - I didn't want to go out! ..
- Exactly! So some “bathe” until the next incarnation ... And then they don’t come back here anymore ...
- Where are they going? - I was surprised.
- Below ... Grandma says that here you also need to earn a place ... And whoever just waits and rests, he "fulfills" in the next incarnation. I think it's true ...
- And what is there - below? - I asked with interest.
“It’s not so pleasant there, believe me. - Stella smiled slyly.
- Is this sea, is it only one or there are many of them?
- You will see ... It is all different - where is the sea, where is just a "view", and where is just an energy field full of different flowers, streams and plants, and all this also "heals" souls and soothes ... just not so- then just to use it - you must first earn it.
- And who does not deserve? Don't they live here? - I didn't understand.
- They live, but not so beautiful ... - the baby shook her head. - Here, the same as on Earth - nothing is given for free, only here the values are completely different. And who does not want - that gets everything much simpler. All this beauty cannot be bought, it can only be earned ...
- You now speak just like your grandmother, as if you have learned her words ... - I smiled.
- The way it is! - Stella returned a smile. - I try to remember a lot of what she is talking about. Even what I don't quite understand yet ... But I will understand someday, right? And then, perhaps, there will be no one to teach ... That will help.
Here, we suddenly saw a very incomprehensible, but very attractive picture - on the shining, fluffy-transparent blue earth, as on a cloud, there was a cluster of entities that constantly replaced each other and took someone somewhere, then returning again.
- And what's that? What are they doing there? I asked, puzzled.
- Oh, they just help the “newbies” come, so that it’s not scary. This is where new entities come in. - Stella said calmly.
- Have you seen it all? Can we take a look?
- Well, of course! - and we came closer ...
And I saw, completely breathtaking in its beauty, the action ... In complete emptiness, as if out of nothing, a transparent luminous ball suddenly appeared and, like a flower, immediately opened, releasing a new essence, which looked around in complete confusion, nothing realizing ... And right there, the waiting entities embraced the "newcomer" with a clot of warm sparkling energy, as if calming him, and immediately led him away somewhere.
- Do they come after death? .. - for some reason I asked very quietly.
Multiple medalist of European championships. Seven-time champion of the Russian Federation.
Ekaterina Yurlova was born on February 23, 1985 in the city of St. Petersburg. The girl was brought into sports by her father, Viktor Yurlov, who later became her personal trainer... It was dad who noticed his daughter's sports talent. After Catherine mastered cross-country skiing, her father introduced her to biathlon mentor Alexander Ivanovich Suslov, who raised more than one generation of talented Russian biathletes.
Ekaterina Yurlova in 2008 entered the World Cup for the first time. A year later, she won a silver medal at the European Championship in relay. The athlete performs in competitions from St. Petersburg and the Leningrad region.
Yurlova's next World Cup took place in the last trimester of 2010, where the biathlete took only fifteenth place in the sprint in Kontiopahti. The affairs of the entire Russian national team then went unsuccessfully, but already in the next season she became the second number in the team.
In personal races in Khanty-Mansiysk, Yekaterina Yurlova dropped out of the top ten in the mass start, in the sprint she took sixth place. At the last stage of the pursuit, the girl managed to take fifth place. In the overall standings of the 2011 World Cup, the biathlete took seventeenth place.
After that, they began to impose on Yurlova great expectations... The athlete obviously progressed against the background of the rest of the national team members. Katya trained as part of the team, preparing for the new season, which turned out to be unsuccessful.
In 2014, the biathlete planned to participate in Olympic Games held in Sochi. The girl trained individually and was not part of either of the two women's teams, formed to prepare Russian biathletes for the Olympic competitions. Later it turned out that the individual approach prevented Catherine from entering the national team. When choosing athletes, the coaches focused only on the team members.
At the World Championships in Finnish Kontiolahti on March 11, 2015, Yurlova sensationally won in the individual race, avoiding misses at a 15-kilometer distance. This is the best indicator in the tournament. Czech biathlete Gabriela Soukalova walked exactly the distance and made only one mistake in the last shooting. The Czech woman was already preparing for the triumph, but Ekaterina appeared on the track, who walked perfectly on the targets and showed good speed, and after the fourth line she won against the Czech with a difference of 28 seconds.
In the 2016 season, Ekaterina achieved success again. At the January stage in Anterselva, the Russian biathlete became the third in the sprint, and thanks to accurate shooting at the last line and misses of her rivals, she eventually won the pursuit. At the end of January of the same year, Yurlova managed to bring the Russian national team to third place in the relay.
The sports biography of Ekaterina Viktorovna is diluted with creative weaknesses: the athlete writes poetry. The girl even presented her personal collection "Waiting for Spring". Yurlova believes that this is only the first stage on the path of her development as a poet.
Fans call Ekaterina the most extraordinary and creative person Russian biathlon... The biathlete graduated with a degree in sports psychology. The knowledge acquired at the university helps to concentrate on the competition today. In addition, the girl speaks English.

The masters-bet company tells about the Russian biathlete Yekaterina Yurlova-Perkht, who, despite giving birth and being denied access to the Olympics in Pyeongchang, has not lost interest in her favorite sport and is eager to fight again.
Yurlova Ekaterina - childhood and adolescence
Ekaterina Viktorovna Yurlova-Perkht was born on February 23, 1985 (a good gift for dad for a holiday) in a sports family in Leningrad. Catherine herself recalled that not only her mother and father were actively involved in sports, but also her grandparents. And brother Dmitry is directly related to sports - now he is a senior specialist in the city sports committee of St. Petersburg.
The nimble girl got up on skis quite early, and her first coach was her dad, Viktor Vladimirovich. For a while, the girl was also engaged in figure skating... But Katya Yurlova moved to biathlon at the age of 20.

Yurlova Ekaterina - sports titles and awards
The biography of Ekaterina Yurlova in her first season in biathlon was replenished with a golden page: a representative of the Dynamo sports community won the Russian championship among athletes under 27 years old. The first international start was the European Cup stage, and in the 2007/08 season she made her debut in the World Cup.
When, in the 2010/11 season, Yurlova stepped into the forefront of the national team, rumors began to circulate about her use of doping. However, this information was not confirmed. True, invitations to the 2018 Olympics in Pyeongchang, like most other presenters Russian biathletes, Yurlova from International Olympic Committee did not wait: too many bad things were connected in Lately with shooting skiers from Russia.
Ekaterina Yurlova is today an Honored Master of Sports of Russia, a world champion; she has won victories and prizes at the World Cup stages, and medals at the European Championships. And this is not all of her titles and awards.
Yurlova Ekaterina - personal life
Actually, Catherine was not going to get married until the end of her career in sports. But love is evil, and in 2015 the biathlete tied the knot with Josef Percht, an Austrian massage therapist who has been working with the national teams of his country for a long time (from 2010 to 2016 it was a biathlon team, and since 2016 - a men's alpine skiing team).
Ekaterina Yurlova and her husband Joseph Percht
The newlyweds celebrated the wedding right at the training camp - Yurlova was then just preparing for the competition in Austria. Catherine and Joseph signed (he is 13 years older than his wife) in the town hall of the city of Ramsau. It is interesting that after the registration of the relationship, both spouses took double surnames: Ekaterina is now Yurlova-Perkht, and Joseph is Perkht-Yurlov. A year later, the biathlete and masseur became mom and dad: they had a daughter named Kira.
