That's it.   Kaisa Makarainen has announced retirement today.   I'm losing my favourite athlete of all time and I doubt that I'll ever find a biathlete that I can support more than

What a shame, we nearly had a historical competition for Lithuania, where all three athletes would have made the pursuit.   Unfortunately, Kaukėnas will fall down to 61st   But, it

Wow how many places did Fak gain with that last clear shoot? Must have been about 20.

 

Gonna lose a few on the track again, though. EDIT: Managed to hold them all off. Well done.

 

No Boe, Fourcade wins. So predictable.

 

Other Boe was terrible.

Fourcade opening the bindings of both Peiffer and Desthieux who were face down in the snow. One of the big things I like about biathlon and cross-country skiing, athletes who are back on their feet who open the bindings of some (sometimes random) other athlete who's still lying in the snow, catching their breath.

- Dahlmeier's top level debut, bringing Germany from 8th to 1st in the world championships relay

- Häcki vs Öberg at the 2016 junior world championships

- The 2016 Youth Olympics single mixed relay, China beating Norway

- Lowell Bailey's world title

 

This win is going on my list of all-time favourite biathlon moments.

That sir, is a great list. Those last two :wub:

That mirrors one of my favorite things about Cross Country (running). You could have an epic battle with someone to the finish, but despite losing/winning the mutual respect for the fight is a great feeling. Plus, I was always willing to drop everything for another runner in big trouble because I knew what they’d gone through, and it’d suck if there was not a single person willing to support them.

:GER German team for Ruhpolding:

 

A couple of changes from last week's World Cup in Oberhof. Preuss is back after illness and Horchler is back after some stages in the IBU Cup. They replace Deigentesch and Hildebrand who are send to the IBU Cup. 

After some good results in the IBU Cup, Nawrath and Rees get the chance this week in Ruhpolding. They will replace Fratzscher and Schempp. Schmepp has shown a lack of speed in the recent races, so he will focus on training in the next weeks. He may be back for Pokljuka, but this is not certain. Fratzscher will be back in the IBU Cup. 

 

Women:

Maren Hammerschmidt

Denise Herrmann

Janina Hettich

Vanessa Hinz

Karolin Horchler

Franziska Preuss

 

Men:

Benedikt Doll

Philipp Horn

Johannes Kuehn

Philipp Nawrath

Arnd Peiffer

Roman Rees

His 27th in the Mass Start while only missing 2 targets is clear indication that something is off.

Rupholding with a Sprint, Relay and Pursuit.  Should be fun.   As expected Forcade with the two wins moved above JT Boe.  It will be interesting to see if he can get far enough ahead, and do well enough when he comes back to win again.

      summary   Brignone = top star of the championships     rest of the team = why wasting money bringing them to the championships and expose them to the world, showing their total lack of talent?

      Yep. Not sure if it was the NOC or the biathlon federation (I assume the latter) that put him in the Livigno training 'world' with a former Italian biathlete as coach, but they can definitely also be blamed:  almost everyone involved in that shitshow got the motivation just sucked out of them by the methods and shitty atmosphere until they either retired or changed country

      Lots of injuries, including often just pure bad-luck stuff like a fall from a set of stairs, illness, and of course the Sochi tragedy in 2014: one of her biathlon friends, young Julia Pieper, killed herself with a biathlon rifle early during the Olympics (she wasn't on the team, but was a training partner of both Preuss and Dahlmeier). Obviously a hard hit, which led to terrible Olympics for Preuss, with a DNF, awful results in her other individual races and a relay where she was the first runner for Germany, but fell early on, got snow in her rifle and broke a pole and ended up losing almost 3 minutes, which in turn resulted in Germany being off the podium for the first time ever.   After that came all the injuries and illness and everything. So glad to finally see her have her big individual global gold, that is so well deserved.

      Dave Ryding's Sixth was the best from a  man since 1934!  We actually have two Women's Golds in the 1930s.

      first win for the Italian men's relay since 2007      very good Home stage for us   if only the organizers didn't set the finals sessions at 2 p.m. (especially on Saturday), there would have been a lot more spectators on the seats
