Of all the disappointments of these Games, not even being in medal contention for the men's event here before the laser run is the biggest disappointment for Hungary.

What is the time difference that can realistically be made up for?

Average shoot = 15 seconds

Bad shoot = 30 seconds

 

Plus 3000m running.
