Four days, four races in the sports park of São Carlos, starting today 

So far Bruna is 12 out of 12 in her career for races in Brazil (still never been beaten), so let's keep that going today  

 

@MHSN First ever FIS races in Tehran this month, that's pretty cool

Well, today's women's race is already cancelled because there's not enough competitors

Well I'm almost sure this is not the first FIS race in Tehran, they held so many competitions in ski resorts of Tehran.

Shemshak, Emamzadeh Hashem and Dizin are the only other three places in Iran where FIS cross-country competitions have been held, but I have no idea if they are ski resorts of/near Tehran  

 

This is definitely the first one that's actually listed as Tehran (rollerskiing instead of XC, but still).

I see , didn't notice the difference, people here mostly consider Shemshak, Tochal, E. Hashem and Dizin as parts of Tehran !

 

yes they are all ski resorts near Tehran, Tehran is next to mountains, so many ski resorts here.

Jungbluth scored some great FIS points in yesterday's race. His average is now 308, so he should be able to secure first ever Ecuadorian qualification by the end of the Sao Carlos races.

Hopefully, but he scored 487 points today!! He needs to improve his 5th score, currently 375, so something around 330 points should be enough to send him to PyeongChang!
