There is speculation that Loginov will retire.  He denied that.  By the way, every time I see his name, I think of the Hunt for Red October.  We meet the cook early in the movie, his name was Loginov.

Para world championships canceled in Ostersund due to Covid 19.

Which was a real shame since it was the first time they were a stand alone championships. I love watching the Blind Biathlon races, that laser system they use is awesome! I still think the sitting athletes should have to ski with the rifle though.

Basic but useful stuff, if I got a euro for every time I've seen a certain Brazilian Totallympian work up a good sweat with that, I'd be filthy rich now

a few days ago, Dorothea Wierer signed a new sponsorship agreement with Huawei...

 

so, even if she keeps saying that she will decide if she's going to retire or not only in late Spring before the new season's training camp starts, I guess this is a good proof that she's going to continue her career at least until Beijing 2022 (always if this fuckin' coronavirus stagnation is over and she's still fully healthy by that time, of course)...

Good that Chinese-Italian relations are going to be close, they have brought so many benefits lately.

Yeah, I noticed the Huawei hashtag on her IG account at the end of February so it's obvious with this and Red Bull sponsorship she's not gonna retire anytime soon
