Men's Super Sprint - Norwegian Andersen, relegated from the World Cup won by 2.2 over Bjoentegaard.  7 of the 30 in the final were Norwegian.  The US had two as Cervenka finished 9th and Durtschi 26th.

Really good race for the IBU Cup - Women's Race

 

 

The men's Dale skied fast, but missed 3 shots!  I do not think that he is going to China.

 

Mixed and Single Mixed Relays on tap tomorrow.

 

 

[RobtheAggie 340]

Argentina in the Single Mixed Relay and Chile in the Mixed Relay.  That is awesome!

[RobtheAggie 340]

Chile did not make it past the first leg before they were lapped.  I almost wish that in the IBU Junior Cup and IBU Cup that teams would not be removed from the race when they were lapped.  How else is Chile supposed to get better?  I hope the team got some really good training and can find a local race or two prior to their return to South America.  With Dale and Knotten going for Norway in the Single Mixed Relay, I am not too sure how long Argentina will last as well.
