Norwegian Champs on streaming!  Remember, the Direkte page does not work, but the skiskyting-nm page does.  Sprints today.

I notice that Russian Biathlon’s heroic refusal to meet reality continues - after the Russia Cup Series (in Russia), the Friendship Cup series (in Belarus), the International Championship races (2 countries) they are rounding off the season with the Russian Domestic Championships.  So plenty of variety there, kind of marketed to fans of Gibraltarian football.

Norwegian biathlete Eivind Sporaland has gone missing.  He has not been seen since 19 March.

The auto-translated website says this athlete is a 'superstar' and won a junior world championships medal, but this athlete is nowhere on the IBU database? This German article also mentions a silver at the 2021 junior worlds....but the actual results of the 2021 junior worlds show absolutely nothing with his name...

I'm starting to wonder, may they be mentioning the wrong sport or something? There is nobody with a name remotely close to this who got a world junior/youth medal since 2016...

Maybe biathle, the UIPM running & laser pistol shooting variant?  Or bike/run triathlon?

    • In Rome, it would be useful to roof the swimming pool complex at Foro Italico, possibly with the option of retracting the roof and covering the tennis court complex. Overall, there's a lot to do, for example, compared to Budapest, but unfortunately, this is Italy How many years has Roma been building their new stadium, and they keep pushing back the completion date- now I read it's 2030? and it should be ready. The same goes for Milan- there should be a modern complex of indoor swimming pools with 50 meters pools, etc., but there's a problem with one stupid football stadium, which will only be built after an ultimatum from UEFA

    • Our delegation are a bit surprised there no chairs nor tables in the rooms though  You not use tables in Italy ?   
    • In Milan we share the building with no one else than     &       In Cortina we share the place with  
    • impossible, there are not enough venues in both towns and I mean, Milan doesn't have an Olympic Stadium, a decent Tennis Complex and a big Swimming Complex (not to mention the sea) Rome, on the other hand, doesn't have a Rowing/Canoeing Basin nor arenas and stadiums for the team sports beyond football and rugby there's no chance that all those venues would be built from scratch, meanwhile if we use both cities we already have almost everything we need, especially the most expensive and controversial sites

    • https://nypost.com/2026/01/31/sports/team-canada-skeleton-coach-joe-cecchini-speaks-out-after-american-katie-uhlaender-manipulation-claim/   Oh the drama....   Cecchini: “I don’t really wanna speak negatively about Katie, but Katie was not on the World Cup team. She wasn’t a top-tier athlete in that program anymore. She was at the end of her career. I would personally would rather race against Katie. She’s not as competitive as the other athletes,” he said. “It’s probably really unfair to say and not really where I want to go with this but that’s where we are with that.”   Uhlaender: “If I were Canada, I would be concerned in how this coach is representing the Olympic values for his country,” Uhlaender told Fox News Digital. “He hurt a whole field of athletes, all with dreams, and this sends the message that they don’t matter unless they are number one. All athletes matter, and we all deserve to compete fairly, with integrity, and respect. He did not respect anyone in that field. “This is not about my resume or how good the athletes were in the race. This is about the fact that he intentionally manipulated the competition to hurt myself and 13 other countries because he felt it necessary to eliminate all possibility. That is against the spirit of sport and not what the Olympic movement represents.”   Isn't it great when other people's dirty laundry is aired?  /sarcasm     (I was a little surprised to see NPR pick this up, but per this article, Uhlaender preemptively recorded the phone call after receiving a text from Cecchini that said he had 'bad news' for her.)
    • Idea (that I don't want to mess with right now, but someone else can steal the idea): Could feed the docs from LA28 + Paris 2024 through AI and see what it says.  (Would just take downloading them, perhaps merging them for ease of upload, and passing it through.)
