Finally an Olympic gold in biathlon for Italy.

Strong relay expected!

 

Surely somebody will run a penalty round and we will finish around 8th place.

Nah, she shown as DNS before that already. Also saw her run past while waiting for the first bus

Ooff, Baiba giving me a heart attack today but glad to see it was still enough!

 

I made one more family cheer for her today by explaining how important she has been for us, yay

When are they rewarding the medals from 1994? I'm sure there was something in the water then, that's forbidden by today's standards.. 

Too late

I don't know how many people here are familiar with Vittozzi's story, but a year and a half ago, the idea of Lisa becoming Olympic champion seemed just as absurd as Federica Brignone winning gold did 10 months ago.

 

This is another very emotional win for Italian winter sports fans 

Italian women are so strong and determined, but where are the Italian men?

I remember that if the better the Polish girls did individually, then the worse they performed in the relay... In the second week of the Games, Poland doesn't have many medal chances, so I expect additional pressure from the polish media towards biathlon, which won't make the situation any easier.

I'm not sure we want to go down that sort of sociological/cultural/anthropological road.
