BAY 1: Biathlon

Biathlon at Routt County Rifle Club tests you where it counts: your ability to shoot straight after your heart's hammering. You ski or run a course, stop at stations, and put rounds downrange—misses cost you penalty laps or added time. It's the kind of event that exposes whether you can manage your breathing and settle your sights when fatigue is working against you.

This intermediate-level competition on May 17th demands both legs and trigger control. You'll move through the course, alternate between cardiovascular effort and precision shooting, and find out if conditioning matters as much as marksmanship. It's practical training dressed up as a race.
