I think many of us are still working out the bugs with the first CBC Biathlon race of the season, but HPM showing great results, all racing Senior Men 10km distances for this Sprint race. Kirk 4th, Kyle 5th, Matt 6th, Dean 8th. Matt shooting the best with 70% on the day.
The change that has happened over the last couple years is the depth of the Colorado Biathlete’s., along with more participants. People are skiing stronger and shooting has improved so much that it’s not just 3-4 guy’s that can win on any given day, but could go down to any 10-15 guy’s. You can’t just throw lead down the range and expect to make it up in skiing. You have to put the entire package together. Ski strong, hit your targets and get in / out of the range fast. As a Master’s athlete, it’s not so much about winning, but the completion and when the top 4-5 are only separated by 30sec., that’s exciting head to head racing, and not just a TT anymore…
