Race Snapshot: WCF Prologue

Sigh. Prologues. They count for FIS points. They count for World Cup points. And yet, somehow, I just don’t really care that much about them. Still, a race is a race, so here are the requisite snapshots:

Race Snapshot: IBU World Cup Sprint

Great races from Sara Studebaker and Haley Johnson today. A decent race from Tim Burke, probably undone by those two missing last time through the range. You’ll note that Tarjei Bø was back in 44th with 5 missed shots; that’s biathlon for you!

Race Snapshot: Lahti WC Pursuits

Marit Bjørgen is beaten again! And I’m going to have to go back and check on this, but I have this funny feeling that the French men tend to ski faster late in the season. Probably some misleading points for the women again.

Race Snapshot: WBC Women’s 15km

Looks like shooting was a big factor today in Helena Ekholm just crushing the field. She shot clean, and it looks like a lot of others had a few misses. This is one of those races where percent behind the leader is rather misleading. For instance, Sara Studebaker probably had a very good race in […]
