Lauren Cammenga translates Maria's words in this interview - http://m.rsport.ru/artist_gym/20150415/823416826.html

 "Today I wasn't too nervous, and basically all the events went well with decent results. But on beam I could have performed better. At the beginning on that event I have no nerves at all, but then when everything starts going well, close to the end I always get more nervous on combinations. Everything else was good.

I'm competing in the all-around for the first time. I won't say that's it's been difficult, but then I worked on all events constantly during my preparations, so I had time to become accustomed. I understand that I have a chance to fight for medals, but all the same I just tune into doing what I need to – no better, no worse. Tomorrow we'll train a little less, because I should rest a little before the all-around final. But I'm sure I'll have enough strength."

Lauren has done translations of interviews with Ksenia Afanasyeva and Maria Paseka, too.  You can read them here - http://russiangymnasticsnerd.tumblr.com/post/116495346336/russian-interviews-w-r-sport
