Biathalon involves cross country skiing, does it not? I believe the competitions have already been held, and the snow on its way out for another season.

Dryland training starts in Sept-Oct maybe Nov depending on your unit for comps in late Feb.

Snow? Who needs snow didn't anyone see the cadet nationals last month? Snows an option, hard work isn't.

PS Mcpl Spunky where did you learn to spell? or are you still just having a hard time finding that spellcheck button?

 

[Saorse]

Not everyone is a mystical speller: we'll all live.

I don't know of anyone on the Biathalon team. Who do you train for it and when does in start?

 

[mcpl_spunky]

doers any budr no were da spelL chech is. Man you're worse than me.

 

[CADPAT SOLDIER]

(Whisper) He was making fun of you ( Whisper)
just thought I should let you in on the joke

 

[wohunter]

just start running. it will help you with your breathing and leg strength. you do not need to wait for the rest of your team to start training. skiing is a lot different then running but if you can run long distances with ease then biathlon should be no problem.

 

[mcpl_spunky]

yes that should be no problem. The only thing is , I don't know how my shooting is after I've finished running . Besides last year at camp. when we were doing range last sunday I hit every target and it went clink. because they are not hard to hit.See accuracy isn't that needed , like the target isn't out of ten, so the targets to me are really easy to hit.
