Tero Seppälä has been left off the Finnish national team's training group.

Sure why not, they've got plenty of men who can finish in the top-30 in World Cups! :)

It looks like Ukraine is going to spend a decent amount of money [2.6 million] to build a new biathlon training center in Yaremche at the Ski Resort of Bukovel.

IBU Congress info sent out.  Two interesting things that I found the invitation talks about 2024 and 2025 World Championships.  Also the minutes from the last conference are interesting to peruse.

Links are here.

According to this article, Wierer was looking at retirement prior to Covid19.  She was too tired.  But the forced rest has changed her mind and she will return.

A translation website that can’t pick up on certain parts of the language is my guess...

That is my guess to.  There used to be a website that would show the funniest things that Google Translate would come up with.  It was a lot like awkwardfamilyphotos, people would submit the things that were really funny, I am not sure what happened.  I think as the technology has improved, the mistakes are not as massive as they once were.   

 

The article make me wonder some if she was really serious, or was this an effort to draw more attention to herself.  No idea.  I

Russian officials have finally admitted that doping happened.  


Sort of. “It was all a mistake, but the Norwegians were worse!”  Usual stuff.

    • I still shocks, that a country of 4-5 million inhabitants? can be a powerhouse in almost every winter sport + handball, football (most recently with Haaland) and athletics: Ingebrigtsen, Warholm, etc. With such a small population, they can't be missing out on any major talent, surely? This must be the best training system in the world...
    • FIFA announced the stadium and time for each match   for  Iran, it will be 2 matches in LA (and not just 1) and 1 in Seattle and luckily we avoided playing in Canada. absolutely nothing against the country, but there are just too many douchebag Iranian groups in Vancouver trying to mix everything with their stupid politics. it's better to stay away from them.   that can happen in US too but less likely. playing in LA is more like playing at home, at least I hope so. 2022 Qatar was a disaster from our point of view, hopefully this one remains only about football.
