    I was there for the race on sunday... Really cool to see all the world cup stars live and in such a small competition where you could stand next to them and watch.

      That's one of the coolest things about summer racing. You get an up close experience that you don't get at the WC. When US and Canada used to face off at N.A. rollerski champs it was so cool to see my heros race up close

      obviously as an American I know Stina most from when she and Jessie Diggins battled to the line in the PeyongChang Team Sprint. It would be great to see Jessie pick up the rifle and compete with Stina at an IBU event haha

      @@BrianHalligan-USA , a few reasons why I do not follow biathlon are: 1. I do NOT understand the rules and even upon googling I still cannot find a site that I can get a basic understanding of how to score by mixing skiing and shooting; 2. the nature of the sport which skiing is 'interrupted' by shooting thus loosing the continuity or the flow in the sport.

    Even if its impressive, stina is still not young.
    She will be 29 years old next year.
    Women dont last as long as men in biathlon.
    If she turns out to be a real talent and actually can be top 10 this season or even go for the medals, she will have like 2-3 years left untill she gets to old.
    Even most men in biathlon quits in the early 30:s

      @@DanielLarsson01 Självklart finns det undantag, precis som att björndalen höll hög nivå även vid 40 års ålder, men det är han ju ganska ensam om.
      Säger inte att stina är körd bara för hon är 28 år nu, men säger att sanolikheten att hon ska va bra i flera år framöver är ganska liten.
      Är hon i toppen redan i år så kan vi säkert se hon göra bra i från sig kommande 5 åren. Ska bli spännande att se om några månader hur hon står sig.
