Don't miss the target!

 
It is currently the Biathlon World Cup and I am watching every race. Biathlon is a winter sports event combining long-distance skiing with precision target shooting.You may think it’s boring but I really like the sport and it holds a lot of good and bad memories for me. The best thing about watching the races is that I know some of the people who compete in them! One of them is a very good friend of mine from secondary school. It was a school that specialises on winter sports. There, we trained together, went on training camps and competed in races on the weekends. I was never very good so I gave it up after secondary school but my friend has always been amazing at biathlon and won every race at the time. She had so much passion for the sport and was extremely ambitious so she carried on with it and now she is able to be an athlete as a career! How amazing is that? 
 
You should try watching biathlon sometime, maybe you like it. ;)
