some off topic fun   Ivona Fialková vs former NHLer Boris Valábik in Hammer Throw. as part of our Olympic magazine challenge. That´s really funny to watch

 

The whole challenge start at 17:20 with the special "basic preparations" and technics introduction from Martina Hrašnová our Hammer Throw athlete from 12:30

 

but I recommend especialy the most funny Ivona Falková attempts from 20:10

Italy gets the 2026 Olympics.  I was pulling for Sweden.  Antholtz will host the biathlon program.  I wonder where the World Cup will go in 2025 and 2026 in the traditional preview slot in 2025 and someone will get the third on the traditional slots. Oberhof, Ruhpolding, and ???.

Alexander Chernyshov and Alexander Pechyonkin are banned for 4 years for doping.  

[RobtheAggie 340]

I wonder if we will see more suspensions in Biathlon from Russia - WADA has 100 "strong" Russian doping cases.

Sounds like IBU wants to introduce some Ruka Triple-like Season Opener from 2020? Say goodbye to the usual mixed relay & sprint relay crap then and say hello to Kontiolahti Triple?

I'd already be happier if the single mixed relay would be changed (in name only) to sprint relay
