BAY 1: Biathlon

Biathlon at Routt County Rifle Club on March 29, 2026 pairs cross-country skiing or running with rifle shooting—testing both your engine and your trigger control under fatigue. You ski or run a course, stop at stations to shoot for accuracy, and rack up penalty laps for misses. It's a genuine test of whether your marksmanship holds when your heart's pounding.

This is intermediate-level competition, so expect shooters who know their rifles and their fitness. The format forces you to manage adrenaline and breathing while chasing speed. If you've got the aerobic base and can keep your groups tight when tired, this event rewards that skill.
