Lampic with a couple of penalty laps. On the bright side, she can do them super fast!

Auchentaller and Schneider, new generation is standing up

Did I not check the calendar correctly and is it Falling Finns Day?

What a shooting from Kebinger!

The 4th shooting curse of 18 February

Biathletes not training shooting, football players not training penalties, it's like tennis players not training the serve or hurdlers not training the hurdles

Our very own @brunamoura has arrived in Slovenia today, where she'll make her comeback after surviving the car crash on the way to the Olympics a year ago. Bit of a tense morning, because she had to go by a transfer arranged through GetTransfer, again, just like she was more or less forced to do last year due to the circumstances (this time the Brazilian van was full with the rest of the Brazilian athletes and a few non-Brazilians, so there was no space anymore). The reason for that being a tense thing of course being how it went so very wrong last year, so stepping into a hired taxi van was understandably a bit of a....tense moment. Luckily this time, as logic would of course expect, nothing happened and she arrived safely in Slovenia, all good! Next up: try to find someone to wax the ski's these days, light trainings to keep the shape and get the energy level to competition level and then on Wednesday, it's the big moment...the 5k freestyle! Vamos

What a result for the Romanians!

32 seconds behind. In the individual JTB was 42 seconds faster than QFM in the (of course longer) final lap, in the sprint he was 29 seconds faster. It's not impossible. Edit: ok, JTB is not making up enough time, this is indeed done.

Haha JTB going "fuck securing silver, I'll attack as long as I live"

Oh wow, QFM

Yeah, that was a bit too much pressure sadly.

Full pressure for an absolutely sensational yet not impossible world title on the shoulders of poor Jonas Marecek, of all people

Jacquelin somehow managed to avoid total collapse and keep the damage limited.

Some fantastic shooting by Rees, wow.

This is a once-in-a-lifetime chance for the Czechs now.

Is that the generic Eurosport commentator? Luckily I'm not depending on that now, but I feel like the amount of times their generic things like "It's now really starting to hurt!" and "Now they're really pushing hard!" are already not possible to be counted on one hand

I think that 4th shooting made pretty clear that weird things can happen today, and there are significantly weirder things imaginable than Laegreid and JTB making up a minute

Christiansen and Tarjei trying hard to make it interesting, so far it works

This 4th shooting was quite something

Finello hit a target. Eventually.

Impressive Czechs so far!

Not the day of Christiansen and Femling.

Di-Rect - Through The Looking Glass

The body of footballer Christian Atsu of Hatayspor (former Newcastle United, among others) has been recovered from rubble in Turkey. In the past almost two weeks, he was reported missing, reported rescued, reported still missing and so on, but now he has sadly been confirmed dead. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Christian_Atsu
