Q&A with Alena
http://www.figureskating-online.com/alena-leonova.html
As the most mature of the Russian ladies currently still competing, I'm surprised Alena Leonova doesn't have her own thread yet! Thought I'd get a jump on compiling some info here.
Alena Leonova (Russian: Алёна Леонова)
Excerpt: Alena Leonova once spearheaded the wave of talented Russian girls when she won the World Junior title in 2009, and was the first Russian lady in eight years to do so. While she went on to claim silver at Worlds in 2012, the following two years were not as successful. She finished 13th at Worlds in 2013, and as a result, did not qualify for the Olympic team.

Q&A with Alena
http://www.figureskating-online.com/alena-leonova.html
Original Post
As the most mature of the Russian ladies currently still competing, I'm surprised Alena Leonova doesn't have her own thread yet! Thought I'd get a jump on compiling some info here.
Alena Leonova (Russian: Алёна Леонова)
Excerpt: Alena Leonova once spearheaded the wave of talented Russian girls when she won the World Junior title in 2009, and was the first Russian lady in eight years to do so. While she went on to claim silver at Worlds in 2012, the following two years were not as successful. She finished 13th at Worlds in 2013, and as a result, did not qualify for the Olympic team.
