That's some heavy shit

 

 

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! Full story and how to help can be found here!

Karma exists :wacko:

 

Loginov received a serious leg/knee injury during the Summer NCH and was hospitalized. Moreover he fell on his back. He's conscious but in pain shock.

Just announced. Nothing more than bad bruising. Back in 3 weeks

Nice new suit for the Brazilians, only problem is that it's not for them, but for the Germans...:dunno:

Finally, a bit of nice news from the Brazilian team can be shared :d 

 

Last season they were coached by Tobias Torgersen, the coach of the Swedish IBU Cup team, He went to Poland's women's team however (sadly, but deserved), and long story short: Brazil needed a new coach and place to train instead of with Torgersen with Östersund as 'base' in Europe. 

 

Well, they found it, and a nice one it is! Together with the Australian team, Brazil will set up base camp in Livigno, Italy, where they will have the fantastic opportunity to have specialist shooting trainers, skiing trainers, technique trainers, a specialist waxman (in fact, he went to five Olympics as waxman of the Italian team), a ton of available equipment and facilities and everything....basically, they're making a huge step in terms of professionalism! 

 

Luca Bormolini (the ex-biathlete, older brother of the more succesful Thomas Bormolini) will be the new coach :)

Ukrainian Yana Pustovalova apparently declared her desire to represent Slovakia, she started to study in one of our universities, the Ukrainian Biathlon federation president announced it.  https://sport.aktuality.sk/c/301924/nova-kuzminova-ukrajinska-biatlonistka-chce-reprezentovat-slovensko/

The IBU has held a doping hearing on Yekaterina Glazyrina of Russia.

The story seems to be a positive sample from 2014 Russian Championships that mysteriously disappeared,

If she is cleared it will be good news for Russia but if guilty it could mean hundreds of suspensions for Russia.
