The Russian missed the next season after tearing knee ligaments, then took the following year off after giving birth to her second child in December 2001.
She made a comeback, switching to the 800 meters, but it was short-lived as she could not find the stamina needed for the longer distance and failed to qualify for the 2004 Athens Games.
