If you'd like to help our fellow Totallympics member Bruna Moura get to the 2026 Winter Olympics, after her car crash on the way to the 2022 Olympics, every tiny bit of help would be greatly appreciated! Full story and how to help can be found here!

I think there would be more countries competing if the Open European Championships weren’t so close to the competition days. We’d probably see the likes of Mongolia (because it’s probably the closet Biathlon center to them), Romania, Kazakhstan, etc.

But Mongolia was/is not competing in the OECH :p
