Biathlon IBU World Cup 2019 - 2020


Recommended Posts

That was an epic fight from Doll, I've rarely seen anyone in any sport go that deep and just completely tear himself apart :bowdown: Doll's last lap was the perfect example of exactly what sports is about.

 

He would have deserved it, but JTB was just a bit too good, which is impressive in it's own right.

Marte Olsbu Roeiseland will not compete in Le Grand Bornand, WC 3. She will instead focus on some more training towards the WCH.

Well, with Hammerschmidt not starting in the IBU cup, will she be able to pull Germany back together this week? Probably not yet, but happy that she is back :)

So the only thing that can stop a Boe is yet another Boe? :mumble:

Crazy season. To see Lithuanians with good starting numbers in a World Cup race is definitely a rare sight. But if they keep getting into points, then they won't need to start like 67th, 85th and 94th.

 

Although, we've never had two starting in the first 40.

 I did not realise Bo was going to miss all three.  Wow, if wins, that would be amazing.

 

  The US switches Jake Brown and Travis Cooper between the IBU Cup and the World Cup.

Interesting women's team for Germany this WC round:

 

Marion Deigentesch (World Cup debut)

Maren Hammerschmidt

Denise Herrmann 

Janina Hettich

Vanessa Hinz 

Franziska Preuss

 

It's the first time since Presque Isle in the 15/16-season Franziska Hildebrand has not been selected for a WC.

    • I used public transit the entire time I was in Milan.   My first day was a doozy, because I had to two flights to reach Malpensa, and then the train into town was delayed, and then I got confused a station and boarded a tram instead of the metro, proceeded to travel in the wrong direction, got off, walked back to the station, found the metro, got off a station early, walked around a kilometer to my hotel, and checked in.   My colleagues mostly took cabs upon arrival, but I deduced to take the frugal approach. That said, I was a true public transit professional by the time I left Milan.   I actually enjoyed my rides to and from venues, because I'd just chat up fans and volunteers from different countries. It helped me learn more about the city too.   
    • It's the olympics, sleep is for the weak!    The first day i got there i was on a 12 hour flight from l.a to rome (flight that left mid day), lay over, another flight to milan, uber to hotel, then right away to speed skating (1500m men), then after uber to hockey venue for women's gold final, then after the celebrations uber to the hotel, i ended up being awake about 36 hours that day, the next morning i thought to go sightseeing in the center of milan, but ended up sleeping until like 2pm..... and had speed skating/short track that night 
    • I tried to get onto the metro multiple times and gave up    I had just arrived the day of from Bangkok (12 hr flight) and was just exhausted and wanted to sleep 
    • Plus, you missed out on a potential metro ride with me, which is quite priceless in my opinion 
    • My hotel was very close to Rho so was easy to get there, but it was so far from the hockey venue that after the women's gold medal match it was so expensive to get back, and also the next day after the usa slovakia semis it took forever, the asshole driver took the city and not the freeway  
    • Uber cost me $224 CAD to get back to the hotel from the OC. It basically prevented me from buying tickets to a speed skating session 
    • Romania's national team coach, Mircea Lucescu, has died half an hour ago He was in hospital since March 30th, just before the friendly match against Slovakia. Unbelievable how the life can have such turns...in March 26th he was in Istanbul playing the WC qualifying play-off vs Turkiye and now he died.    Thank you very much for every moments you bring us in your huge career (he's on 3rd place in a most trophies won in career, after Ferguson and Guardiola) and may your soul rest in peace, Mr. Lucescu.
