Re: Watching a strange sport...

If I had to do all that cross-country skiing, you'd have to shoot ME at the end.

That's a good one!

One poor lady fell on her rear and broke her rifle...but luckily didn't shoot herself.

Biathlon has been around quite a while. If I were younger and able, I might want to give it a go.

Never heard of cross-country skiing and shooting. Wow! I used to ski, but now I'm afraid I'd break a bone. Can't imagine how they would carry a rifle and two ski poles!
