This past weekend in Jericho, our “home trails” played host to the US Biathlon National Championships. With the likes of World Champion Lowell Bailey and World Silver Medalist Susan Dunklee in attendance, there was a lot of hype! But in addition to reigning World medalists, there were also many aspiring and future-World Cup racers in attendance. MNC athletes Eliza, Marika, and Timmy also compete and train with the Ethan Allen Biathlon Club, and all three raced in the events.
Eliza raced to third for the Youth Women’s division in Friday’s sprint, Timmy raced to first place (National Champ!) in the Youth Men’s division in Saturday’s pursuit, and Marika raced to second place in the Youth Women’s division during Sunday’s mass start. Way to go gang!
