If you Google Guy Brown Biathlon, you should get a 2-3 min video taken this last Tues down at Elk River. Cheresa and Saylor did an awesome job!! And our thanks to Guy and Jack the camera guy—was not the warmest day of the week!!
ps. Please let me know if you plan to attend the Duluth Snowflake race MN Cup #8 on SATURDAY the 5th of March!!
Bill Meyer, Coach
Siena Ellingson out shot Maeve Lindsay for the title today—Maeve decided at the last moment yesterday to jump back in today! Ryker Bosek outshot most of his near competitors to move into 8th place from a 12th place start!
Beautiful Northern MN day with fresh snow, midteen temps, sunshine and only a light wind!!
Maeve Lindsay skiing as a Civilian for MN Biathlon won the Women’s National Guard Sprint event at Camp Ripley yesterday, topping Siena Ellingson who is now relocated to Utah! Lauren Huber, MN Biathlon was 3rd!
In the Men’s division Ryker Bosek was 12th. All raced in the Open class in large fields with over 90 total starters.
RESULTS:
We just got word today that the MN National Guard will allow civilians to participate in the Guard Champs starting on Sunday this coming week at Camp Ripley.
Please let me know if you plan to attend
Bill Meyer, Coach
MNBiathlon
I just received confirmation that spectators are allowed and civilian athletes are again allowed to race with a completed COVID screening and liability waiver (both attached). If any of your athletes plan to attend, please send myself and SFC Pam Marshik (CC Line) a list of the race/date and names so they can be added to the start list. We have over 120 athletes (of all skill levels) registered this year so it will be a large competition. Please let your athletes know they must stop in at Range Control and get a vehicle pass before going down range. Also, ensure they have a face covering.
Here is the schedule:
Saturday, 12 FEB Official Training
Sunday, 13 FEB Sprint Race
Monday, 14 FEB Pursuit Race
Wednesday, 16 FEB Relay Race
Thursday, 17 FEB Patrol Race
Races are scheduled to begin at 10:00am with zero at 9:00. If any of your athletes want to participate in the team races, we can probably find them a composite team to join.
