Cool to see Tomingas do as well as expected/hoped :cheer: 

 

0+1+3+0 for Anna Weidel, too bad for that third shooting :( 

 

And Jill Colebourn with 5 misses managed a top-100 finish :d 

 

Impressive stuff by Wierer and Herrmann, too bad Herrmann wasn't a second faster, but at least this is the kind of race we'll hopefully see more often. Small margins :cheer: 

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!

It's still not Simone Greiner-Petter-Memm. After all those years I still don't know what part was her married name or if she was married in first place :lol:

Greiner-Petter is her original surname...Memm (Silvio, former Nordic Combined specialist) is her husband...:p

Less than 24 hours between the races, you'd probably expect the teams to not go too crazy and not switch around the athletes during a Covid year, but it happened.

 

Oryashkov (101st) for Bulgaria out, Todev, 19yo in

Millar (98th) out for Canada, Burnotte, 23yo in

Krupcik (76th) out for Czech Republic, Mikyska, 20yo in

Siimer (85th) out for Estonia, Raenkel, 30yo in

Ranta (66th) out for Finland, Hiidensalo, 29yo in

Beletskiy (95th) out for Kazakhstan, Sirik, 26yo in

Balodis (58th) and Slotins (96th) out for Latvia, Matjuhins 19yo, Birkentals 19yo in

Skorusa (94th) out for Poland, Szwajnos, 22yo in

Trsan (69th) out for Slovenia, Cisar, 20yo in

Hartweg (54th) out for Switzerland, Tambornino, 34yo in

Baloga (92nd) out for Slovakia, Bartko, 24yo in

Dudchenko (99th) out for Ukraine, Lesiuk, 24yo in

 

Women, imagine that, have 104 starters compared to 101 men. Which sport can actually boast about that?

 

Sola (66th) out for Belarus, Kruchinkina I., 25yo in

Vobornikova (82nd) out for Czech Republic, Tepla, 21yo in

Lehtonen (79th) out for Finland, Laari, 30yo in

Weidel (68th) out for Germany, Schneider, 23yo in

Kolomiyets (86th) out for Kazakhstan, Klimina, 31yo in

Ko (100th) and Kim (101st) out for South Korea, Mun 32yo, Frolina 36yo in

Puce, 21yo is in for Latvia, moving them up to two starters

Goreeva (56th) out for Russia, Mironova, 26yo in

Selina Gasparin did not start in the individual for unknown reasons, but she is in the startlist for the sprint

Bekh (64th) out for Ukraine, Valj Semerenko, 34yo in

Phaneuf (75th) out for United States, Irwin, 28yo in

 

So remember, you have to do good or you might get replaced by an IBU cup athlete.

Might be planned moves:  for the Individual you need steady shots, fast skiers for the sprints.  With it being an Olympic qualifying year, you don’t want to just let it ride.

Well, I didn't think that. Another run one day after 15/20 km? I was sure that there will be changes :p

Not all them, Russia and Germany just took out their worst placed performer, but it's mostly done so the younger athletes don't run the full 20k, which is why a lot of younger athletes are in in the sprint.
