Somewhat related, interesting article about how the US hopes to become a leader in biathlon, and also how little they spend.  2.3 million on the sport.  I wish the article had a little more about the interview.  I would have really enjoyed that.

Laura Dahlmeier has caught a cold, so she will not start in today's Mixed Relay. Denise Herrmann replaces her.

With her health issues, I wonder how much longer she will put her body through all of this.  What a great talent, possibly the best ever, but constant illness has to take a mental toll at some point.  I am not wishing her any ill will, but I can not imagine the frustration.  The Germans still have a strong team.

Bernhard Kröll, the guy who discovered her and Magdalena Neuner, recently said that he cant imagine that she will continue until 2022 ...

Here we go again:

Day 1: Dahlmeier is ill

Day 2: Dahlmeier drinks her magic potion

Day 3: Dahlmeier is back and already dominating.

The irony of someone from Italy accusing german athletes of doping ... :lol:

She cant be that ill considering that she initially was supposed to compete. Would also like to know whether the scenario you are describing here actually ever happened?
