We just want to get rid of the sprint Just as a medal event at the Olympics, because getting medals for both the sprint and pursuit is totally ridiculous If you'd like to help our fellow Totallympics member Bruna Moura get to the 2026 Winter Olympics, after her car crash on the way to the 2022 Olympics, every tiny bit of help would be greatly appreciated!

Werloc 3,127 Posted August 28, 2016 #43 Share Posted August 28, 2016 I understand that this is Summer Biathlon and that basically no favourites are participating here apart from the A team of Slovakia, Bulgaria, Ukraine, Estonia and some others, but this 4th placement from Karol Dombrovski looks slightly promissing for the upcoming season Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xander 53 Posted August 28, 2016 #46 Share Posted August 28, 2016 (edited) Ukrainians are competing here after hard trainings/physical stress so this championship is a part of the training plan and our adult team (and some girls) weren't supposed to show good results. And they weren't good even despite all the gold medals. Pidhrushna said that she has no emotions after the victory and it's not valuable comparing to winter biathlon, no serious competitors except Kaisa so she's pretty sober about that.

That's sort of a sad reaction from Pidhrushna. Not very respectful to the competitors for who this is sort of a semi-big deal.

For example, I watched men's pursuit today and it's not like Otcenas was crazy happy with his win #banbestmen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
