The ladies did well in the Sprint.

25th - Lunder (+1:26)
31st - Moser (+1:50)
38th - Paradis (+2:13)

 


All three not only made the Pursuit, but will be set up well for more solid results there

 

Conditions were kinda snowy and windy, so a bit challenging. But at least the course was in good shape.
 

Was there not a 4th?

Not so hot a day for the men in the Sprint.

 

Runnals - 47th (+2:27) 

Borglum - 62nd (+2:59)

Pletz - 89th (+4:26)

 

First two didn’t shoot bad, only one miss each, and conditions looked good. Just didn’t have the ski speed
 

As far as Olympic qualifying goes, Kazakhstan didn’t do so hot either, so we only lost 4 points, leaving us down 14 for the all important 20th spot in Nations Cup

World Championships - Women's Individual

Lunder 54th
Paradis - 69th
Moser - 73rd

All three had a tough time on the shooting range. Looks like Lunder is 3rd alternate for the Mass Start.

Good news, bad news in the men's individual.

The Canadians didn't do great:
Pletz - 65th
Runnals - 66th
Borglum - 73rd

But they did better than KAZ, made 37 more Nations Cup points to put them in 20th (and with a 23 point lead). There are 8 races remaining that will impact that Nations Cup, tomorrows Single Mixed Relay, Saturday's men's relay, and then six more races when the World Cup resumes

Single Mixed Relay went today, Lunder and Runnals doing the honours.

Finished 18th. So, not great. Shooting was ok, but ski speed struggled a bit, Lunder seemed to struggle as the race progressed. Waxes have been a challenge for a lot of teams.

Good news is they beat KAZ, and netted another 30 points in that battle to qualify a men's team for 2026. As it stands now, Canada sits 20th, with a 53 point cushion

Well, the women's relay got lapped. That was disappointing.

 

Men's relay somehow didn't get lapped and finished in 17th while Kazakhstan finished in last and got lapped so that's good news

For the women, Paradis had a decent opening leg. Rousseau got ate up a bit on the second. Moser had a bit of a nightmare standing shoot and that was the end of their day. Interesting they back loaded the women's team like that. Maybe looking to give Lunder a little extra rest in case she gets into the mass start? France utterly crushed everyone

For the men, Kazakhstan started the race with 3 penalty laps on the first shoot. Tough to come back from that, finished 23rd. Pletz has a decent opening leg, though it helped the field took it easy the first two laps. Runnalls struggled a bit, and Connelly really really struggled skiing, and Borglum just barely managed to not get lapped (could see him in the foreground of one shot of JT Boe hamming it up on his victory lap).

Adds another 60 points to Canada's Nations Cup lead on Kazakhstan, which now stands at 113. Points still at play in 6 races.

    • It's an interesting question, Norway is certainly expanding their efforts into a number of new sports. So, that cannot help but to peal off a few more natural athletes. I know their training methods are kinda rocking the world in a number of summer endurance sports.  I can't really speak to they dynamics of their development program. Their men's nordic programs largely always seem to be ridiculously deep, overwhelmingly so the last decade or so. 
    • There is an Italian roster listed on elite prospects despite no official roster announcement yet. However many people on the hfboards forum are questioning its legitimacy as there are many questionable players on the roster
    • Actually, it seems Wicklow Irish Pub is an actual small chain in the city of Queretaro in  
    • But it seems to us that Norway wasn't as strong in Lillehammer 1994 as it was later? And not just in women's events. Generally, until 2000, Norway was much weaker in women's biathlon and women`s cross-country skiing. I remember in the 1990s, Italy's biggest rivals, Belmondo and di Centa, were Russia, when Norway somewhere further back and only in the classic style. Bente Martinsen- Skari, this is their first really strong girl in cross country, just about 2000, just like Liv Grete Skielbreid- Pioree in women`s biathlon at similar times.   Do you think, that is there any hope that thanks to the popularity of Haaland and football in general in Norway in recent years, winter sports such as biathlon or cross-country skiing will lose a little bit, becouse that?

    • This suggestion  @Dnl  made some months ago has also been implemented.   In each club, I have added a "Milano Cortina 2026 Qualification Tracker" record which takes the content from the Qualification by Nation tracker of that NOC.   People who see it can not edit the content, but it will be automatically updated once @Matej will update the record, and if you notice any mistake feel free to report it to Matej or in the record itself.   Club's admins can now edit the name of the section into their own language or change the spelling, I have used "Milano Cortina 2026 Qualification Tracker" for all the clubs. To do so, go inside the section, then click on "Manage Club"-"Edit this database Record" and change the name of the section:     By the way, if you are not a club's admin but you would like to edit things inside the club just let me know and I will give you the rights to do so. There can be more "admins" inside the club with the rights to edit and organize the sections, and that's not a role that require time or commitment.   Let's try to make all the clubs active during MiCo and when the LA28 qualifications will start!
