Our summer rollers biathlon race series will kick off with a pursuit style race! The pursuit will start at 15 second intervals, based on a magic formula determined by Race Director Ethan. Missed shots incur a trip around the penalty loop. For ages U15 and up, the course will be a total of approximately 7.5k, while U13’s will race a shorter (and flatter) loop of approximately 3.75k. In order to participate in these races, individuals must be proficient on their roller skis, though they do not need to race with their rifles on their backs.
